If your funds are getting low, Refuel Your Meal Plan by adding more Munch Money! Deposits of $25 or more can be added to your card TAX FREE throughout the year at the Dining Services Office. When you spend added dollars on Munch Money you receive discounts from 5% - 20% at the register.


Consider your daily routine… Do you eat three meals a day? Will your class schedule, studying, extracurricular activities and social events interfere with dining? Will you miss dinner due to employment or evening classes? Anticipating the answers to these and similar questions will help you to select a meal plan that best fits your lifestyle.


Purchasing power equivalent to the plan you have selected will be placed on your Campus ID Card. Here is how it works: meals can be used at McKinstry Dining Room in Troy for All You Care to Eat meals or Albany Campus Center Cafe for yourself. Bonus Money can be spent like cash in any Dining Services outlet on either campus for yourself or guests. Lost or stolen Meal Cards can be replaced. Should this happen to you please contact Public Safety and Dining Services immediately.
