+ Base Cost
Each meal plan has a base cost of $2,075, which is included in the price of each plan. The base cost covers overhead and other costs required to run the dining program. After a small allocation to vending, the remainder of the plan goes into the student's starting balance, to be used for 50% discounted food purchases in the dining facilities.
Meal Plans A+, A, and B have limited rollover capability. If you choose one of these plans, the balance differential between your plan and Plan C, if unspent, will be credited into a rollover account for continuing usage.
The maximum rollover amounts are:
$380 for Plan B
$559 for Plan A
$894 for Plan A+
There are no rollovers, refunds or credits from Plan C or Plan D, or from the first 2,075 in the balance of Plans A+, A or B (including vending funds).
Rollover Accounts will terminate at graduation, or upon leave of absence or withdrawal. No refunds or credits will be issued.
