<p>This is where I got the 1,500 from, which was posted on the admitted students site… I now realize it doesn’t necessarily mean in cash, and I also realized that 1,500 number is the number for freshman summer work contributions towards tuition and such…</p>
<p>“When you leave home for college life, you will need to have some money ready for all your start-up costs like books and supplies. We recommend you bring with you the funds you have earned over the summer. Every frosh is expected to earn, save, and bring to campus a minimum of $1,500, some of which will be needed for the first few days of school. Credit cards are accepted at the bookstore and quarters will definitely be needed for laundry!”</p>
