Changes in meal plans
Students can upgrade their meal plan at any point in the semester. However, they cannot remove or downgrade after the meal plan change date of August 23, 2024 for fall semester, and January 10, 2025 for spring semester. Failure to use the meal plan does not cancel your financial responsibility for paying for the meal plan.
