Eligibility & minimum meal plan purchases

As a reminder, returning students who reside in a traditional residence hall (room without a kitchen) must purchase a meal plan of 7 meals or higher. New, first time residential students who live in a traditional residence hall must select either the 14 meal plan or the All-access meal plan. Only residential students who reside in apartments and commuter students are permitted to select block plans. Students who reside in traditional residence halls who do not select an appropriate meal plan, or fail to select one altogether, will be assigned and billed for the 7 meal plan prior to the start of the spring semester.

Canceling or changing your meal plan

You may change your meal plan (up or down) to a plan that suits you best during the first two weeks of the semester. There is a full refund for cancellations through week 2 of the semester, with the exception of Rowan Bucks and Dining Dollars spent. There will be no refund for the remaining weeks. You may change to a higher weekly plan (10 meal plan, 14 meal plan, or All-Access) at any time (pro-rated after the 2nd week). The 30 and 60 block plan will be refunded on a meal remaining basis until the end of the second week, after which there will be no refund for remaining unused meals. You may purchase additional block plans throughout the semester if needed. Unspent Rowan Bucks carry from semester to semester; however, Dining Dollars expire at the end of the academic year. In addition, meals associated with block plans expire at the end of each semester.

Purchasing additional Rowan Bucks

Additional Rowan Bucks can be purchased anytime via credit card by logging into Self-Service Banner, then selecting "Buy Rowan Bucks via Credit Card."

If you cancel your meal plan and it​ ​creates​ ​a​ ​credit​ ​on​ ​your​ ​account (negative​ ​balance),​ ​you​ ​can​ ​turn​ ​that​ ​credit​ ​into​ ​Rowan​ ​Bucks​ ​by​ ​by logging into Self-Service Banner, then selecting Transfer Rowan Bucks via Financial Aid/Bursar Credit.

​If​ ​cancelling​ ​your​ ​meal​ ​plan​ ​does​ ​not​ ​create​ ​a​ ​credit (meaning​ ​you​ ​still​ ​owe​ ​a​ ​balance​ ​to​ ​the​ ​University),​ ​your​ ​remaining​ ​balance​ ​due​ ​will simply​ ​be​ ​reduced​ ​by​ ​the​ ​meal​ ​plan​ ​amount​ ​removed.
