<li><p>Do you guys recommend the Registration Fee Deferred Payment Plan? Also it says the deadline to pay the first fee for it is Sept 1 but financial aid isn’t disimbursed until weeks later. That’s confusing me a bit.</p></li>
<li><p>If I buy a bike now, where do I leave it if I’m leaving town and can’t take it with me? (I’m in STEP, and there’s a 1 week vacation after it’s over before fall quarter starts. I don’t know where I would leave my bike during that 1 week period.)</p></li>
<li><p>Any other STEP 08’ers on here? 
I’m in Miller 2!</p></li>

<p>2) i think you can leave ur bike with TAPS for a small fee during summer months :)</p>
<p>I would contact Financial Aid office to discuss the best way to make the fee payments by the deadline when waiting for dispersement.</p>
<p>I left my bike in Ryerson because of all the Band-Uh! recruits living there. They parked their bikes in the lot so I figured if I left mine there (took out the seat) they wouldn’t notice. Came back the next week and my bike was untouched! It was great, since I was living in Ryerson in the fall quarter anyway =]. For the summer, I left my bike in Primero Grove because those are apartments so people leave their bikes there all the time. I’m hoping it’s still there!</p>
<p>2) for that one week between STEP and fall quarter, you can safely leave your bike on campus.</p>
<p>marxbarz - I hope your bike is still there, but generally leaving your bike unattended over the summer isn’t safe. TAPS tags bikes on campus during the summer to see which ones are abandoned. (If it isn’t abandoned, the owner removes the tag. If it’s abandoned nobody removes the tag and TAPS collects it). That’s how they get all those bikes for the semi annual bike auction. TAPS offers summer bike STORAGE for a small fee.</p>
