What are optional services?

    Optional services include dining plans and parking permits. By signing up for optional services, the charges will be added to your student eBill. To secure these services for Fall 2024, you must pay your eBill, including the optional charges, by the tuition due date of August 12, 2024.

    Why should I sign up for optional services?

    By adding optional services to your student eBill, it is possible for you to use available financial aid funds to cover these costs.

    How do I sign up for optional services?

    Log in to Student Portal. To purchase a dining plan, select the Dining Services menu, select “Off-campus Student Dining Plan Application” to make your choice.  To purchase a parking pass, contact Campus Police.

    When are optional services available?

    For Fall 2024, optional services will be available beginning July 15, 2024.

    What is the deadline for optional services?

    For optional services to be included in your eBill, you must request the services by August 12, 2024. To have the service charges included on your first student eBill, you must request the services by July 15, 2024.

    What if I missed the deadline or didn't pay my eBill on time? Can I still add services to my student eBill?

    After August 12, you may purchase optional services online or at each individual office:

    I already have a dining plan since I will be living in on-campus housing. Can I still sign up for optional services?

    Yes, you can add a parking permit to your student eBill. If you want to change your dining plan option, contact Dining Services.

    I purchased a dining plan and/or parking permit in the fall. Do I need to sign up for these services for the spring?

    • Board and Block plans must be purchased each semester. Meals and Dining Dollars do not carry over to the spring semester.
    • Dining Dollar Only Plans will carry to Spring Semester. If you purchase a Spring Dining Dollar Only plan, any remaining balance from the fall will be added to your spring plan purchase. Any funds left at the end of the spring semester are non-refundable.
    • Parking Permit - If you purchase a yearly parking permit in the fall, you do NOT need to do so for the spring.
