(5) $400 Pawpoints Plan -Available for Arnold Residents only. This plan includes $400 pawpoints to be used at any participating food service location. Unused portion does not carry over to another semester.
Two meal plans are available for residence hall students during the summer terms:
(1) 7/15 Plan-7 day any 15 meals in any resident dining hall with transferability options at the Lair in the LBJ Student Center.
(2) $200 Pawpoints Plan-allows $200 pawpoints to be used in any participating food service location per summer term.
All meal plans are good for one semester only (including the $88, $188, $200, and $400 paw points). Changes to the meal plan for the fall semester must be made by Monday, September 16, 1996. Any changes after this date must be made by special approval from Residence Life. Non-resident hall students may purchase any of the meal plans available to residence hall students except for the Arnold Hall plan. Individual meals may be purchased on a cash basis in any of the cafeterias.
Room and board is computed on a semesterly basis and may be paid in full at registration or in installments during the long semesters only. If the three installment method is chosen, the first one-half payment is due at registration, one-fourth payment is due prior to the start of the 6th class week, and the final one-quarter payment is due before the beginning of the 11th class week. Payment for Summer room and board is required in full at the beginning of the semester.
The University reserves the right to increase or decrease the room and board rates on 30 days notice. All residence halls will be closed during the Thanksgiving and Spring holidays and between semesters; however, the University may choose to keep the halls open if the intermission is too short to justify closing.

Refund of Room and Board Fees. Any student who officially withdraws from the University or who is granted permission to live off campus may receive a refund on the unexpired portion of the room and board payment for the current installment period. The refund will be computed from the date the approved withdrawal card, the meal ticket, and the student's room and board receipt are presented to the Cashier's Office. A matriculation fee of $5.00 will assessed on any withdrawals prior to the first day of class.
Room and board charges will continue until the student has officially moved from the University residence halls and cleared with the office of the Director of Residence Life. Any refund due will be applied to any unpaid financial obligations with the University. If the refund exceeds any unpaid balance, a refund check will be mailed within approximately 30 days to the permanent address left with Data Entry in the Registrar's Office.
