Moving in: The residence halls will be open for JumpStart students to move in Friday, Sept. 20, through Sunday, Sept. 22. There is no extra housing charge for students that participate in JumpStart. Please note that we observe Sabbath hours and request that you do not move in during Sabbath--students should stop moving in one hour before sundown on Friday, and may resume moving in 45 minutes after sundown on Saturday. We understand that travel arrangements may sometimes require an earlier arrival time. If you would like to request a move-in date prior to Sept. 20, please contact our deans to make appropriate arrangements.

Cost: The cost for JumpStart is $200.00 and will be charged to the student’s account when classes begin. The JumpStart fee includes all activities, materials and meals; including supper on Sunday Sept. 22, 3 meals each day from Monday Sept. 23 through Friday Sept. 27, Sabbath lunch and supper on Sept. 28, and lunch on Sunday Sept. 29. The cafeteria will be open all week beginning at 5:00 pm on Sunday, Sept. 22. Students on campus that are not participating in JumpStart may use their ID number or ID card to charge the cost of any cafeteria meal to their student account. The cost is $6.50 per meal.

Students that attend the required number of sessions will receive one free academic credit, which is a savings of $607.00. 

Disability support: If you will need disability support during the week of JumpStart, please call our office (800-558-2132) as soon as possible with your specific needs.
