Commuters Required Meal Plan: $100 Warhawk Bucks* per semester

The plan is convenient and easy. We will automatically bill you for the plan, $100 Warhawk Bucks* per semester for full-time (12-hours or more) students.

*Warhawk Bucks are added to your Warhawk ID card and are used like a debit card at all on-campus dining options, at the coffee shop, and can even be used with the vending machines!

Note: Non-Residents may opt to use any of the other meal plans instead, this just represents the minimum plan a non-resident can choose.

Ordinarily, we will only exempt you from the required participation dining plan due to: 

• Medical exemption: If you have a medical condition requiring a diet that cannot be met by The Roost, you may be exempt upon receiving our approval. Please complete the Dining Plan Exemption Application then mail or fax to the Campus Services office. Please include a letter concisely and fully describing your dietary circumstances along with supporting documentation from a licensed medical physician. The physician must be an impartial individual who is not a family member. Students and physicians should avoid making requests for exemption based on conscious choice or medically unsubstantiated beliefs. Vegetarianism is not normally considered a valid reason for dining plan exemption. 
• Religious exemption: If your religious beliefs impose dietary restrictions that cannot be met by The Roost, you may be exempted upon approval from the Senior Director of Campus Services. Please complete the Dining Plan Exemption Application then mail or fax to the Campus Services office. Please include a detailed written explanation from your religious counsel.

Financial need is not an allowable reason for exemption from any of the AUM Meal Plan.

We must receive applications for exemption by August 31 for Fall semester and by December 15 for Spring semester. If you receive an exemption during a semester, you must reapply for exemptions each semester. Exemptions will not automatically renew each semester. You will be notified of approval or denial via email within two weeks of application. All decisions are at the discretion of the Senior Director of Campus Services and are final.
