Print Quotas

  • The University’s current print quota software displays all printing as a dollar amount. This is not a charge to your student account.
    Each print is equated with 8.5 cents of available print quota. For example, if a student has 500 prints remaining in their print quota, the print quota balance will be expressed as $42.50 (500 x $0.085 = $42.50).

  • Full-time, enrolled, undergraduate students have a print quota of $42.50 (500 prints) per term. The print quota is reset at the beginning of each semester including May term and summer terms for enrolled students.

  • For more information please see the article "Print Quota FAQ."
