Dine + Connect Commuter Plans FAQs
The Dine + Connect meal plan provides full-time, first-year commuter students with $250 Panther Dollars each semester that can be spent on snacks, beverages, and full meals at any of our on-campus dining locations, including Starbucks.
We provide this plan to help you healthfully balance a busy life that includes your studies and connecting with your on-campus friends and activities.
The Dine + Connect Meal Plan will be included in your billing statement. Students who wish to opt-out of the plan will be able to do so within the first three weeks of the academic semester.
The plan offers flexibility and convenience, so you have more time to connect with your campus community before, after, and in between classes, and activities.
With the plan, there is no need to carry cash or any other form of payment – your Panther Dollars are stored on your Adelphi ID card. You will also save on sales tax with every purchase.
All purchases are sales-tax-exempt, and these savings add up. For example, if you purchase three Grande Strawberry Acai Refreshers per week, you’ll save over $20 in sales tax over the course of a semester.
Your Dine + Connect meal plan can be used at any of our on-campus dining locations, including the Panther Mart C-Store, Starbucks, and allUC Dining Hall stations. Did you know that the UC Dining Hall was recently ranked No. 4 among the Colleges of Distinction Best College Dining Halls?
