Overview
UNW Meal Plans are entirely a la carte, declining balance plans. There are many benefits to this type of plan, as it provides a significant amount of flexibility for students. Along with that flexibility comes a need for planning.
How Do the Meal Plans Work?
- Food purchases are a la carte
- Purchases can be made in any of our three dining locations on campus.
- Each student has a Dining Fund balance from which purchases are deducted much like a debit card
- The student’s ID card is what they use to access their Dining Funds at the register
- A 20% discount is applied at the cash register when using Dining Funds
- Sales tax is not charged on purchases made with Dining Funds
- Dining Funds can be used at any time during the semester
- Additional Dining Funds can be purchased in increments of $100 at any time during the semester. These funds have all the same benefits of the student’s original dining funds
- As a benefit, students who are on a meal plan both Fall and Spring Semester can carry over unused Dining Funds from Fall to Spring Semester. Students not on a meal plan Spring Semester are not eligible to use leftover funds from their Fall Semester meal plan during the spring. Unused funds are forfeited at the end of Spring Semester. If a student is enrolled in Summer Session, leftover funds from spring may be used during the summer, but not beyond.
- Purchases can be made in vending during Fall and Spring Semesters. Discount will not apply in vending.
Adding Funds
The assigned meal plans may or may not supply a student with enough dining funds for the entire semester. Students who are on a meal plan may add dining funds at any time during the semester in increments of $100. These funds will carry all of the same properties as the student's original dining funds and will be billed to their Student Account.
GET FUNDS is an online program that enables students to conveniently add funds or check their balance. Simply login with your UNW login and password. Your balance and recent transactions will show on the screen immediately. Click the ADD FUNDS button. Payment Type is always "Billing". Click Continue. Choose the amount you wish to add from the dropdown menu. The Account will always remain "Declining Balance". Choose CONTINUE and your funds will be added to your account! Charges for the funds will post on your Student Account.
