Meal Plan Change Request
Instructions for Completing Your Request to Change/Add Meal Plan
Click Here to the Forms Page
The University offers students a variety of meal plans. Meal plans are grouped in categories, and most categories include several options. This enables students to choose a meal plan most suited to their particular preference. Because of this flexibility, we receive many requests to add or change a meal plan. In order to accommodate these requests and have the changes completed by the student's arrival on campus, we require this “REQUEST TO CHANGE MEAL PLAN” form be received in our office by December 1, but no later than January 2.
· If you return your meal plan request by December 1, the correct meal plan and charge will appear on your semester bill in December.
· Meal plan changes after January 2 may not be in effect by the time you return to campus. If the meal plan change results in additional unpaid charges to your account, it may delay the completion of your registration.
Steps:
- Complete Student Name and Lehigh Identification Number (LIN).
- Circle the "ADD" next to any meal plan you wish to add.
- Circle the "DROP" next to any meal plan you wish to drop. (Please use care to stay within your required meal plan categories. See category descriptions.)
- Sign the bottom of the form and return it to the Bursar's office. Forms may be printed and faxed to us at 610-758-3033, or they may be scanned and emailed to inburs@lehigh.edu.
Dining Dolars versus Gold Plus Dollars
Dining Dollars are acquired by students as part of a meal plan. Dining Dollars are good for purchases made from University Dining Services ONLY. Unused Dining Dollars transfer from Fall semester to Spring semester (providing the student remains on a University meal plan). However, unused Dining Dollars EXPIRE at the end of the Spring semester . Because Dining Dollars are part of a Meal Plan, they are non-refundable .
Gold Plus Dollars are a convenient substitute for cash at most on-campus locations and some off-campus businesses. Gold Plus Dollars are good for purchases from University Dining Services PLUS the University's Bookstore, Parking Services, Media Productions, Printing Services, most on-campus copying machines, vending machines, and laundry machines. Several local merchants, such as The Cup, Jazzman's Café, and Pastaficio, also accept Gold Plus Dollars. Additional Gold Plus Dollars may be purchased throughout the semester. Funds cannot be withdrawn from a Gold Plus account but any unused Gold Plus Dollars are refunded to the student after graduation.
