Why get a Meal Plan?
- No need to carry cash
- Anyone can top up at any time - money is transferred instantaneously!
- You can use it at any food kiosk on your home campus
- No interact fees!
- Savings to students on most items (a minimum of $1,145 per deposit is required to qualify for a tax exemption on most purchases)
Students: A minimum of $25 can be deposited to start a meal plan. However if you wish to save the taxes a minimum of $1,145 must be deposited each time to your account to qualify you for a tax exemption. The tax exemption applies to most items except for snack items such as chips, candy bars, and pop or water purchased without a food item.
Staff: A minimum of $25 can be deposited to start a meal plan. Any amount can be added to a staff meal plan. There is no tax exemption for faculty; this only applies to full-time students.
Payment: We accept Visa, Master Card, Debit, or cash. The payment can made at your campus Food Services office, or you can call your campus Food Services Office to top up a meal plan. Upon receipt, the payment will be deposited immediately onto the Meal Plan account. Be sure to bring your student identification number.
Refunds: If you leave the College as part of an academic withdrawal, a $75 administration fee will be deducted, and the remaining balance of the Meal Plan will be refunded with proper documentation.
