Use your meal plan in any dining facility. Our main facility, Neubig Dining Center, offers all-you-care-to-eat buffet service, which offers healthy options and value. Alternatively, you can use your meal allotment as a “meal exchange” at any of our retail dining centers. All menu items in retail dining centers are available for take-out.

• Meals are added every Thursday morning prior to the first meal. 
• Meals are prorated during the shorter weeks in the school calendar.
• Flex plans allow rollover of all unused meals.  The maximum meals allowed per week for use is standard meals per week plus 2 rollover meals.
• Platinum Plus and Gold Plus allows unlimited access to Neubig Dining.  No counting meals, eat what you want, when you want.   

Please contact your Residence Hall Director, who will have you sign a Sick Tray form giving permission for Residential Services staff to use your meal card to purchase a meal for you.

The cashier will keep the form as a record of your authorized use.

Without the proper and signed form a card may not be used by anyone but the cardholder. This is to protect your meal plan and connections account balance, just like any other debit card.

Anyone possessing a card that is not theirs will have the card confiscated by the cashier.

Please contact our Nutritionist or Director of Dining Services to set up an appointment or  call 607-753-5773.

Students can ask any dining cashier for their account balances.

Meal Plan, Dragon Dollars, and Connection account balances can be viewed online at Manage My Card.
