The cost of this board plan is already covered in the Resident board cost. This plan includes 20 cafeteria meals per week as well as $200 worth of Green Bucks (which can be used in both on-campus venues as well as at participating restaurants throughout the surrounding town of Mount Olive) for the length of the semester.

Residential Apartment Students

As a residential student housed in UMO apartment-style living (Byrd, Herring, Kerstetter, Whitfield, or University Apartments) you are required to have a 10 meal board plan. The cost of this board plan is already covered in the Resident board cost. This plan includes 10 cafeteria meals per week as well as $100 worth of Green Bucks (which can be used in both on-campus venues as well as at participating restaurants throughout the surrounding town of Mount Olive) for the length of the semester. Alternatively, you may opt for a 20 meal board plan, which includes 20 meals per week and $200 worth of Green Bucks for an additional $734 per semester.

Part-Time Student

Graduation Fee

The $100 graduation fee will cover cap and gown/announcements (Bookstore), processing fee/diploma/tickets (Registrar’s Office), and cost associated with the graduation ceremony. If a student chooses not to attend graduation, the fee will still be assessed to their account. Additional diplomas cost $35 each.

Overload Status

Students taking more than 18 credit hours per semester will be assessed an overload charge. That charge is $790 per credit hour for each credit hour in excess of 18 per semester.

Parking Fee

Parking fees of $100 will be charged to all commuters and resident students who choose to have a car on campus. The Vehicle Registration Sticker allows a student to park a vehicle on University property during regular academic sessions only. The University is not responsible for the theft of or damage to the vehicle or any personal property left in the vehicle. It is the responsibility of the student to ensure that adequate liability coverage is in force on the vehicle and its contents at all times. Parking citations are issued by the Campus Safety Officers for vehicles who are parked illegally. Payment of these citations can be made in the Business Office.

Pope Wellness Center
