After you have selected and purchased one of the plans, the plan is activated on your HofstraCard, which is similar to a debit card. All campus dining locations accept the HofstraCard. All declining balance plans come with a predetermined number of points (dollars). One point is equivalent to one dollar. Points are deducted from the proper account each time a purchase is made. Points are non-refundable.
Fall semester points may be used from Thursday August 28, 2008 through Friday, January 23rd 2009. Unused fall semester points are carried over to the spring semester provided you purchase the same plan as the fall semester or one of higher value. Spring semester points may be used from Saturday, January 24th 2009 through Sunday May 17th 2009 (spring commencement). All unused points are forfeited at that time.
Designated dining locations may be closed during holidays or when classes are not in session. All meal plans are tax-exempt.
