In accordance with the Housing Contract, students living in the residence halls are committed to on-campus housing for the duration of the contract (one academic year). These fees are non-refundable. Because of the shorter length of the summer term, the charges for Room and Board are prorated. The housing and key fee in the amount of $195 is a one-time fee charged upon entering the university as a freshmen or transfer student. This fee is non-refundable and will be used for building maintenance and upkeep. Students will be responsible for any damages that occur in their rooms and common areas throughout the term of their residence hall contract, as well as at the time of check out if damages are identified. If it is necessary for a new key to be made during the semester, the student will be charged for the new key and lock replacement as necessary. All building damage fines applied to a student's account must be paid out of pocket and cannot be covered by federal financial aid or scholarships.

Central State University will routinely refer pass due accounts of former students to the Ohio Attorney General’s Collection Enforcement Office. Any past due, unpaid account will be referred to the Ohio Attorney General's Collection Enforcement Office for collection. The debtor will incur additional charges and collection expense.  Additionally the Ohio Attorney General’s Collection Enforcement Office is empowered to suspend and revoke driving and professional licenses, garnish wages and seize state income tax refund checks.

Central State University reserves the right to restrict any services to current/former students and current/former employees until any past due amount owed to the university is paid in full. These services include, but are not limited to, the release of all academic records (e.g., diploma, and transcripts) and registration for future semesters. Past due amounts include, but are not limited to, fees, tuition, charges, fines, and loans due to the University.
