Meal Plans

411 on Food @ ASC

Every on-campus ASC student must have a meal plan. The good news is that Dining Services makes it easy and economical to select a plan that works for you.

Each meal plan also includes Dining Dollars which can be used to buy value meals or a la carte food purchases at any on-campus restaurants. Students can also use their Campus Spending Account or cash to buy meals and snacks on campus and off campus. Meals that are not used each week are not refundable or transferrable due to New York State tax law.

When you are ready to start thinking about meal plans, think simplicity and flexibility. Your goal as a student, especially as a freshman, is to focus on academics. Good nutrition is an important part of that goal. Sometimes it can be hard to juggle a close budget and school work at the same time.
