My Meal Plan is on hold. What should I do?
|
Most likely you have received an e-mail regarding your SDSU eBill. If you are delinquent in making your Housing/Meal Plan payment, your meal plan may be suspended. Instructions for making this payment are in the e-mail you received. If you have any questions regarding this process contact the Housing Office or the SDSU Cashiers Office.
If you have made your payment you may go to the SDSU Cashiers Office and request a receipt which you will then bring to the SDSU Dining Services Office. Your Meal Plan will be activated immediately.
During the time your Meal Plan is on hold, you may pay for your meals at any locations that except Meal Plans and ask for a receipt. After your meal plan is released from hold, bring your receipts to the Dining Services Office where you will be reimbursed up to your Meal Plan allowance.
