The University at Buffalo (UB) does not require an initial deposit for undergraduate applications. However, admitted students who choose to enroll must submit a tuition deposit to secure their spot. As of the 2023-2024 academic year, the deposit is $150 for New York State residents and $400 for out-of-state and international students.
Graduate programs may have varying deposit requirements, so applicants should check with their specific department. Deposits are typically non-refundable and applied toward tuition fees. Deadlines for deposits are usually listed in the acceptance letter or on the university’s official website.
