If I’m on the meal plan, but have a conflict such as student teaching, studying abroad, an approved internship or graduation during one semester, how do I handle this?

If you will be on the meal plan for Fall semester, but one of these conflicts occurs during Spring semester, then go ahead and sign up for the academic year contract. Once charges have posted to your account for Spring semester (usually late November or early December), visit the Request a Meal Plan Change webpage and follow the directions to cancel your Spring meal plan.

If your approved internship is scheduled for just a part of the Spring semester, please bring documentation from your adviser indicating the dates of your internship. Dining Services can adjust the Spring semester charges to reflect those dates that you are not participating in your internship to allow you to participate in the meal plan.

If one of these conflicts occurs during Fall semester and you only can be on the meal plan during Spring semester, just complete the academic meal plan contract before the start of Spring semester. Your meal plan charge will be only for Spring semester.
