VISIT OPTIONS
TAKE THE VIRTUAL TOUR

BE A LUTE! SUBMIT YOUR ENROLLMENT DEPOSIT

To join the entering class of Spring 2025, request your housing, and prepare for class registration, submit your $200 Enrollment Deposit.

If you are using a military benefit to pay for college, your Enrollment Deposit can be deferred. Please let us know if this is the case.

Steps to submit your Enrollment Deposit:

  • Go to plu.edu/bealute
  • Click on the button ‘Undergraduate Students: Enrollment Deposit’
  • This will take you to the log-in page for your PLU student applicant portal
  • Once in your portal, click on ‘Respond to your Admission Offer‘ then click ‘I ACCEPT my offer of admission‘
    • Not seeing these options? That means you need to review your official PLU admission letter first! Click on the link ‘View Update‘ under ‘Status Update‘
  • From there, you can take the steps to submit your Enrollment Deposit!

Not sure about logging in to your PLU student applicant portal? Connect with your PLU Admission Counselor, who can help get you started.

Need more information about residence halls before deciding where to live? Visit the Residential Life website. If your Enrollment Deposit has already been paid but you still need to request your housing, you can complete the living plans & learning community application here.

REVIEW YOUR FINANCIAL AID PACKAGE

Submit your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) soon to ensure optimal financial aid awarding for the spring semester.  The FAFSA is free, and it is the best way to see how much it will cost to attend PLU. (Note: PLU’s FAFSA school code is 003785). If you are unable to fill out the FAFSA (i.e. if an undocumented student), and are a resident of Washington state, you can instead complete the WASFA to be considered for need-based financial aid.

SPRING 2025 DIRECT COSTS
Tuition* & Fees: $26,045
Room & Meals: $6,504
TOTAL (if living on campus): $32,549

Once your Offer of Financial Aid has been mailed, you also have the option to view it online on your student account information (Banner Web). Banner Web log-in instructions can be found here.

Review your financial aid offer with your PLU Admission Counselor, who’s ready to schedule a meeting with you and your family to answer questions regarding scholarships, grants, loans, work study, and payment options.

Are you using military benefits, including the Yellow Ribbon Scholarship, vocational rehabilitation, etc?

Contact our Veterans Affairs Coordinator, Neshell Henkel Chabot, at 253-535-7161 or henkelnd@plu.edu to find out how to best use what’s available to you.

*PLU’s Fixed Tuition Guarantee ensures that your cost of tuition will be locked in from your first day until your graduation day. At most colleges, tuition increases each year – generally without increasing students’ scholarships or financial aid – but PLU is stopping that cycle.

For more information, please visit the PLU Fixed Tuition Guarantee webpage.
