Meal Points Explained
Meal points function on a declining balance model. Each item or meal has an assigned price in meal points and that number of points is deducted from the student's account when they make a purchase. The points balance is shown on every receipt.
Unused meal points from the fall semester carry over to the spring Semester. However, at the end of the spring semester any unused meal points are lost.
-
Changing Meal Plans
Students can switch their meal plans up until the first Friday of each academic semester. This can be done by emailing the Office of Residence Life at reslife@up.edu.
-
Off Campus Meal Plans
Students living off-campus can purchase any of the meal plans above by visiting the Office of Residence Life in Tyson Hall 123.
Off campus meal plans are purchased by the semester and do not automatically renew from fall to spring. Unused meal points from the fall semester will carry over to spring, but unused meal points from the spring semester will not carry over to the next academic year.
