Westcliff University does not offer institutionally controlled housing. However, our University has worked closely with REXidence Residential Services to provide students local housing options. REXidence Residential Services oversee all housing operations (applications, placement, billing, maintenance, etc). Housing applications can be found here.

Tuition rate increases, when deemed necessary by the University, become effective at the beginning of the academic year during the Fall semester. All holds and student debts owed to the University, with the exception of financial aid loans, must be cleared with the Office of Financial Aid or with the University Billing Department before an official transcript or diploma may be released.

Changes In Fee Schedule:

Tuition and fee charges are subject to change at the school’s discretion. If there are any tuition or fee increases, the changes will become effective the next semester. The student will be notified prior to any tuition changes.

Methods Of Payments: 
Payments may be made by credit card (Visa, American Express, MasterCard, Discover), cash, money order, cashier’s check, or certified check. All payments can be paid in person on campus to the Westcliff University Registrar. Payments can also be made online through the Westcliff University registration website.
