End of Year Meal Plan Information

Seniors and others who will be on campus during Senior Week: The figures on the meal plan usage signs on-line and in the Marketplace DO NOT include the week of May 12. If you will be on campus that week, please budget your purchases so you will have enough in your account to eat.

How's your balance? Check to see if you are on track, over or under!

ROLLOVER: If you anticipate having a large balance left over at the end of the semester, you may want to plan for a Rollover account. Rollovers can be useful if you move off campus, are here over the summer or winter break or move to a lower meal plan.

ALL STUDENTS:

If you have a large balance and wish to spend it, please read the following guidelines:

If you plan to buy cases of products, the best place is the Marketplace. The Marketplace sells cases subject to supply on hand seven days a week. To buy cases, just ask any manager or cashier. While we increase our orders at this time of the year, we have storage limitations. Some items will run out, so PLEASE DON'T WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE to make your purchases. Weekday mid-afternoons (except Thursdays) are the best time to buy in bulk.

The Tiger Cooler has very small storage facilities and we will limit purchases to keep stock on hand for regular business. The Tiger Cooler sells cases Monday-Thursday only. To buy cases, ask the counter person, manager or cashier.

Not all items are available for case purchase. We do not sell cases of bottled water. No cases or other products may be ordered in advance or put on hold for later pick up. We cannot lend out our carts so please bring enough person-power to transport your items. Food drives may not be organized through groups or by individuals from food items purchased in the dining facilities.

Caution: If you are leaving campus early and will have a balance left on your meal plan, please resist the temptation to give your ID card to a hungry friend. ID cards and meal plans are not transferable, and you will both be referred to the Conduct Process (yes, even graduating seniors). Our cashiers DO check ID cards to make sure that they are not being used fraudulently.

If you have any questions, we'll be happy to answer them. Please contact the Card Office (cardoffice@oxy.edu) or Campus Dining (dining@oxy.edu).
