Arrival
Can I change my arrival date?
March 15, 2023
Arrival dates can only be edited once a room reservation deposit has been submitted. Arrival date changes must be made 30 days in advance and are subject to approval based on occupancy by the Admissions Committee. It is possible that we may not be able to accommodate changes of up to five days, as arrival date changes are permitted based upon room availability. Incoming residents may only make one change to their arrival date, and residents that change their arrival date more than once might incur a penalty fee.
When can I check in after arriving in New York?

What happens if my plans change and I do not arrive on my arrival date?

When is payment due?

Payment is due for the full semester or full length of stay, whichever is shorter, prior to arrival at I-House. Or, an approved payment plan must be in place prior to arrival. If no payment has been made and no payment plan has been approved, you may not be permitted to check-in to I-House. All payments must be made through the I-House portal via credit card or ACH payment.
