Dining Services

All undergraduate resident students under the age of 25 at SSU are required to have a meal plan during Fall and Spring semesters. Resident students are not required to have a meal plan in the summer but may purchase a commuter one. NOTE: Meal Plans are nonrefundable, even if you withdraw from the University.

If you do not want the plan currently assigned to you, you may change your plan no later than 3 p.m. on Friday of the first week of classes. Please fill out the Residential Meal Change Request Form and submit it via email to [email protected]. If you are changing to a plan of the same type (traditional to traditional or dining dollars to dining dollars), you may do this anytime during the semester. The costs will be prorated by date. However, if going to a larger plan, the difference in price between the two plans can only be charged to your student account through the last day of the “book voucher period,” after which you must first pay the difference at the Bursar’s Office. Financial aid can only be applied towards meal plans until it disburses onto your student account. After that date, you must prepay for service.

Meal plan swipes do not carry over to the next semester.

Commuter meal plans are available for students who do not live on campus but wish to take advantage of the plan savings and have the meal plan charged to their student account during the bookstore voucher period. These plans may also be purchased by residential graduate students and students 25 and older during the Spring and Fall semesters and by all resident students in the summer.

Meal plan swipes do not carry over to the next semester.

Special meal plans have been created for faculty and staff. Faculty and staff meal plans for 2024-2025 are as follows:

These prices represent a saving over the casual rate paid at the door. Instructions for applying are on the online Faculty/Staff Meal Plan Application form. All faculty/staff meal plans may be purchased with cash, check, credit card, or payroll deduction. Meal plans are good from August 1 through July 31 when food service is available and are non-refundable. If meal plans are paid for by payroll deduction, any remaining payments will be deducted from the last check if an employee leaves. Employees taking classes at the University are considered employees for this purpose.
