Housing Information

Students will need to complete their roommate questionnaire as soon as possible if they have not already done so. Students with questions about housing should contact housing@Olivet.edu. Through the housing application and selection process students will also be able to pick a meal plan, and this is also where commuter students will complete an off-campus petition.

Financial Aid

One of the most important parts of the Orientation process is finalizing your financial aid. It may seem like a lot to do between now and the start of fall semester, but we are with you every step of the way!

REMINDER: First payment is due August 1st for Fall semester and December 1st for Spring semester.

Visit our “Easy as 1, 2, 3” Financial Aid page for step-by-step instructions and how-to videos for finalizing your financial aid.

If anything seems unclear or you would like to chat further, please reach out to Financial Aid.

Frequently Asked Questions

We suggest checking the spam folder of your email inbox first. The confirmation email was sent to whichever email you used to register for the event. If you still can’t find it, please reach out to your Admissions Counselor.

For families coming from a distance, we recommend flying into Midway International Airport in Chicago. The River Valley Metro is an affordable bus system that will transport you from Midway right to ONU’s campus. We have also had families utilize Reliable Limo to travel to campus from the airport. If your family has a financial burden that makes it difficult to travel, please let us know so we can work together to make your visit to Orientation possible.
