Don’t let College Decision Day stress you out. As May 1 approaches and you weigh your college options, know that your Saint Louis University admission counselor is here to make things easier for you, and help you through the enrollment and financial aid processes. Please contact your admission counselor if you have any questions or need assistance with your deposit. We’re here for you, and we have a community of Billikens that can’t wait to welcome you home.

To confirm your enrollment at SLU, you’ll need to pay an enrollment deposit. (For SLU-Madrid students, this is called a confirmation fee.) This secures your place in the freshman class and should be submitted when you have decided to attend SLU. If you decide not to attend SLU, you will forfeit your enrollment deposit.

• Submit Your Enrollment Deposit (St. Louis)
• Submit Your Confirmation Fee (Madrid)

Once you've logged into mySLU, you can:

Tell Us Your Housing Preferences

• Housing contracts can be viewed and completed through mySLU. You must first submit your enrollment deposit. You will receive access to the contract after your deposit has been processed (24-48 hours). Interested in theme housing? Complete your Learning Community or theme housing application. Your residence hall placement is based on your Learning Community.

Get Ready for SLU 101
