V. Retail Meal Exchange
Meal Exchanges are offered with your meal plan. One dining hall meal swipe per day may be substituted for a
predetermined meal combo at participating retail venues on campus. Meal Exchange locations and selections are
posted online at dineoncampus.com/sfa, as well as at each participating location.
VI. Payment:
The full charge for the meal plan is posted to your student account and is due in accordance with the University’s
Payment/Refund calendar. Any payment you make to your student account is first applied towards tuition and
then towards all other university fees, including the meal plan. Failure to make payment when due may result in
penalties, including a block on registration and/or transcripts.
VII. Financial Aid:
University administered financial aid (scholarships, loans, grants, etc.) may be applied in total by the university
against amounts owed hereunder notwithstanding any payment plan option elected by the student. If financial aid
fails to cover any portion of the meal plan cost, the student understands the balance of the meal plan cost will be
the responsibility of the student. Further, the student understands that enrollment in the meal plan may not be
canceled, due to financial aid not covering all or any portion of the meal plan costs.
VIII. Changes or Cancellations:
Changes or cancellations will not be accepted in any circumstance, including moving out of residence halls, after
September 12, 2023 for the fall semester or February 2, 2024 for the spring semester. All changes or cancellation
requests must be requested prior to the dates specified above via the change request online form found on Dining
Services’ website (www.dineoncampus.com/sfa).
IX. Refund Policy for University Withdrawals:
Withdrawing from all your courses for the semester (loss of student status) may result in a refund of a percentage
of the advance payment minus a weekly charge for the number of meals that were available and dining dollars
spent through the end of the weekly meal cycle (Sundays). The meals-available charges apply to the meals that
have been served and not necessarily those that have been eaten by the student. The University will not issue a
refund for any missed meals.
