Dining Plan Agreement

Effective August 21, 2026

Terms of Agreement for Resident, Townhome, & Commuter Students

Applicable to all (resident, townhome, & commuter) dining plans

All dining plan options are accessed through the student ID card, the official identification card for SUNY Brockport, or the virtual BASC Pass, accessed via basc1.org. Use of any of the dining plans means you have accepted the terms and conditions listed below, and they will apply to your account. Other offers from the Brockport Auxiliary Service Corporation (BASC) may supersede this agreement.

Use of the dining plan constitutes acknowledgement, acceptance, and assumption of all risks and liability associated with dining on campus and/or purchasing meals from BASC. The account holder further agrees to abide by all rules and regulations related to pandemics (i.e. social distancing, mask wearing, hand washing/use of hand sanitizer, etc.), and any other rules set forth by the federal, state, or local government, the campus and/or BASC.

With the exception of the Green Box Program, dining halls are for dine-in only; no food may be removed. China, glasses, silverware or other Dining Services’ property must remain in the dining facilities. The dining plan agreement is a semester contract and is tax exempt, therefore only the account holder can use their ID card/virtual BASC Pass to access their dining plan. Any student who shares their account access and/or attempts to use another student’s account will be subject to discipline via the Office of Student Conduct and/or subject to a financial penalty up to and including the cost of the meal plan.

Meal plans are active starting the Thursday dinner prior to classes starting and all Points including stand along Point accounts are active starting Wednesday prior to classes starting. Meal plans end the last day of finals each semester with the exception of Thanksgiving Break, Winter Break, and Spring Break. Specific schedules are posted at basc1.org.

BASC utilizes contact information provided in Banner for official communication. Add business.services@basc1.org to your safe senders list.

Account Access

Cardholders are responsible for deactivating their physical ID card in the event of a lost card. In the event of a lost physical ID card, the virtual BASC Pass will remain active. Dining Services is not responsible for any transactions that occur when a card is lost.

Payment, Plan Changes, and Refunds

If eligible, payment for a dining service account may be deferred through the Financial Aid Office located in the Rakov Center.

Prior to the commencing of meal plans, dining plan selections and changes may be made as needed via the portal at basc1.org. However, once the semester starts, dining plan selections, changes, and additions to the student bill are limited to the first two weeks of the semester. Only one change to a dining plan can be made during the first two weeks of each semester.

Unlimited, Any, and Block Meal Plans prices include a $100 fee that is non-refundable after the first two weeks of the semester. Meal Plan refunds are only granted when the student formally withdraws from the University and on campus housing (if applicable). Upon withdrawal from the University, access to the Plan will be revoked and any prorated refund due will be issued. All Meal Plan refunds will be less the $100 non-refundable fee (if after the second week in the semester), and all Meal Plan refunds will be on a prorated basis. New York State sales code stipulates that qualified refunds for tax exempt plans will be based on time criteria and not plan utilization. The refund schedule is as follows: Before the first day of the semester—100%, Week 1 – 94%, Week 2 – 87%, Week 3 – 81%, Week 4 – 75%, Week 5 – 69%, Week 6 – 62%, Week 7 – 56%, Week 8 – 50%, Week 9 – 44%, Week 10 – 37%, Weeks 11 and after—0%.

Points only plans and optional point purchases added to any plan are non-refundable except during the first two weeks of the semester if the account has remained idle and no Points have been used.

Meals

For the “Unlimited” Meal Plan holders, no set number of “meals” are associated with these plans. Simply redeem “meals” as often as needed to gain access to Harrison or Brockway Dining Halls. For “Any” Meal Plan holders, “meals” are redeemed once per visit at the two dining halls, The Nest for You Pick 3 options, or The Square for select options. Meal balances reset starting with breakfast on Monday each week on the Any 19, Any 14, Any 12, and Any 7 Plans. Unused meals after dinner on Sunday do not carry over week to week on these plans. Hours are posted at www.basc1.org.

Meals do not roll over between semesters.

Anytime Meals

The Any 19, Any 14, Any 12, and Any 7plans include a select number of Anytime Meals per semester for use at the dining halls, select options at The Square, or the You Pick 3 at The Nest. Anytime Meals may be used for the plan holder or a guest. Anytime Meals are good for the entire semester, but any remaining Anytime Meals (including those provided as part of a promotion) do not carry over to the next semester.

Guest Meals

The Unlimited 300, Unlimited 200, and the Unlimited 100 plans include a select number of Guest Meals.  These may be used to pay for a guest meal at either dining hall – Harrison or Brockway. Guest Meals are good for the entire semester, but any remaining Guest Meals (including those provided as part of a promotion) do not carry over to the next semester.

Green Box To-Go Meals

Some meal plans allow a select number of to-go meals from the dining halls using the Green Box program. New meal plan subscribers receive a Green Box token on their account that can be redeemed for a reusable to-go container at the dining hall. Students will receive an Exchange Wristband when returning a to-go container for future use. Returning students must keep their container or wristband between semesters or purchase a new one. Green Boxes may be purchased for $9 using Easy Money, credit/debit, or cash. Below are the plans that include Green Box to-go meals, the number included in each plan, and where they can be used.  

Points

Meal plans that include Points may be used in any dining location. Additional Points of 25 – 500 may be purchased at one time via credit card at basc1.org. Up to 1000 points may be purchased and applied to the student bill. A point balance of 1000 is the maximum allowed at any time. Students will not be allowed to deposit any amount that would result in a total point balance of more than 1000.

Bonus Points are offered as part of special promotions. Bonus Points work the same as Points. Bonus Points are not eligible for any refund.

Points (including Bonus Points) do not roll over between semesters due to NYS tax regulations. Meal Plan holders who exhaust their dining hall meals in any given week can still eat in the dining hall. They will be charged Points for additional meals.

The following are the Points required for meals in the dining hall:

Breakfast: 12.00
Lunch/Brunch/Light Lunch: 15.50
Dinner: 17.75

Resident Agreement (Required)

Applicable to resident dining plans

When you live on campus, you must purchase a resident meal plan. All new residents who do not select a plan will be assigned the Unlimited 200 Plan. Returning resident students will be defaulted to the meal plan they had the previous semester. Requests for additional Points via your student bill need to be made during the first two weeks of each semester.

Townhome/Commuter Agreement (Optional)

Applicable to townhome & commuter dining plans

When you live in the townhomes or off campus, all Dining Plans are optional. Townhome residents and commuter students may choose any Meal or Point Plans. Meals as part of a Meal Block Plan expire at the end of the semester. Points only accounts (not part of a meal plan) require an initial minimum deposit of 25 points. Additional Points of 25 – 500 may be added via credit card at basc1.org. Points (including Bonus Points) do not roll over between semesters due to NYS tax regulations. When a student adds Points and/or selects a Meal plan via their student bill in the fall semester, that same amount/plan will be added in the spring semester, unless otherwise requested. Townhome and commuter students need to reselect their Points and/or Meal plan each fall at the start of the academic year.

Information Disclosure

Information on the above accounts can only be discussed with the student who holds the account with the following exceptions: Information regarding the participant’s account or transactions may be disclosed to third parties when necessary to complete transactions, when the condition, existence, or usage of an account must be verified by a campus department (i.e. Student Accounts, Residential Life, Title IX Office), to comply with a government agency (including University Police) or court orders, or with the participant’s written permission.
