Dining Plan Terms & Conditions

Weekly Dining Plans

Residential weekly dining plans can be refunded if a student completely withdraws from the University (graduation does not constitute withdrawal)

Refund Schedule

Once a request for a refund due to a withdrawal from the University has been reviewed and validated, the student will be financially responsible for the weekly prorated dining charge for their plan.  The meal plan charge will be prorated through the week of the last use of the plan or through the week of the effective date of withdrawal from the University, whichever date is later; and a prorated amount will be refunded to the student’s account based on the following week of the later date.  

The associated Dining Dollars portion will be refunded based on use. Proration of unused meal plan can be calculated as follows:
