Meal Plans

Keeping in mind that there are approximately 110 days in the academic semester, how many meals you choose to have available on your meal plan is an individual
decision.

All students who live on campus are required to buy a residential meal plan unless they have satisfied the residency requirement and live in a town house or a Lehman apartment. If you do not select a meal plan, you will be assigned the 14Meal plan and billed accordingly.

When choosing what plan is best for you think about how much time you expect to spend away from campus as well as your eating habits:

  • Are you a heavy eater or a light eater?
  • What is more important to you: maximum value or maximum convenience?
  • Where and when will you want to eat your meals?

Our meal plans contain two accounts: Meals & Flex.

Flex is a declining balance account that can be used at any dining location at any time. It is allocated per semester.

Meals are allocated per week and may be used for access to Lehman Dining Center or as a $6 credit towards purchases made at selected campus restaurants. Since meals are allotted per week, you won't have to worry about using them all up before the semester is over.

Meal plan selection is subject to review and audit by the SUNYCard office and is based on room assignments and completion of the residency requirement. Students who are determined to be in contradiction with these terms will be defaulted to the 14Meal Plan.
