When will I receive a refund for my housing and/or meal plan from the Spring 2020 semester?
The University's Business Office and Office of Financial Aid are working tirelessly to determine refunds for all residential students. Updates will be communicated to student's via their McKendree University email soon. We have no further information at this time.
2020 Census
Per the U.S. Census Bureau's residence criteria, students living away from home at the university should be counted at school, even if they are temporarily elsewhere due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Students who lived in university housing for the 2019-2020 academic year will be automatically counted as living at McKendree University and should not be included in their parents' census count. A full statement from the U.S. Census Bureau can be viewed here: Census Bureau Statement
