What's Next?

Applying was the hard part; now comes the fun part. Take a moment to celebrate! We invite you to join our diverse and dynamic community of students and faculty and hope to see you on campus this spring as part of our incoming class.

Enrolling at Dean for Spring 2025

Students accepted for Spring (January) enrollment are asked to submit their deposit within three weeks after receiving admissions notification. The enrollment deposit will hold your place in the entering class ($500 for resident students, $250 for commuters). If you are concerned about making a commitment to Dean within that time frame, please contact your admissions counselor to request an extension.

Please click here to submit your enrollment deposit. (Log in to your Application Status Portal as a returning user to access the payment page.)  

If you have any issues submitting your deposit online, for assistance, please contact the Office of Admissions at 508-541-1508 or admissions@dean.edu

After submitting your deposit, you can track your next steps through your Enrollment Checklist on the Application Status Portal.

Apply for Financial Aid

Don't forget to complete the 2024-2025 FAFSA form to be considered for financial aid. The majority of our students receive some form of financial assistance and even if you think you won't qualify, submitting the FAFSA may make you eligible for an award from Dean's institutional funds. 

Questions?

Whether you need a hand with the FASFA, or have questions about your financial aid package or out of pocket costs, we're here to help! Schedule an appointment with a student financial planning counselor today.

Spring 2025 Academic Schedules

Success & Career Advisors build course schedules for incoming students.

You will receive an email from an advisor with information on how to view your courses, and with an invitation to schedule a meeting prior to the start of the Spring semester.
