Hartwick College offers meal plan options designed to meet the individual needs of our students. In addition to convenient pre-paid meals, plans also include a declining balance credit that can be used like cash at any of our campus dining locations. Most plans include guest passes so that you can treat a friend or family member to a meal at our all-you-can-eat campus dining hall, The Commons.
Meal Plan Declining Balance Dollars
Meal plan declining balance dollars can be accessed through the Hartwick student ID, called the WICKit Card, and can be used at any on campus dining location. Find out more about the WICKit Card here.
At the start of the term, students will initially receive $200 in declining balance. After the meal plan change deadline, any additional declining balance funds will be added.
Guest Meal Passes
Guest passes allow students to invite a friend or family member to join them at Hartwick College’s all-you-can-eat dining location, The Commons.
Do you have a special dietary need?
The Commons offers customized diets for all those who have medically-supervised dietary needs—everything from a complete individual menu to minor accommodations to our current menu cycle. The Commons will also provide food supplies for students to keep in their rooms if medically necessary.
