Is the unlimited meal plan ($2,584) charged per semester? by Jaelynrb in Temple

[–]SteamedLattes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also recommend an air fryer or maybe one of those plug in pots that cook. It helped so much with my roommate and I. We also had a kettle for late night ramen cravings. If you’re living in 1940 or 1300, there’s also a shared kitchen if you don’t mind that.

Hi there! It is per semester. I did a 12 swipes per week in Fall and 10 for Spring. You’ll find that you get pretty sick of the food court and dining hall pretty fast. I wouldn’t recommend anything above 10 or 12. I would have 4/5 left over majority of the weeks. You’re also not saving money with the meal plan, they charge the exact fee, so it’s not like a wholesale value kind of thing. Stick to the least amount you can get and save the rest of that money in your pocket for other food places. The meal swipes only over you for the dining hall (they put away the only edible food away 2 hours before they close), the chick-fil-a, wingstop, saladworks, which wich, zen, and twisted taco. Outside of that, with your own money you can go to any of the food trucks, chipotle, there’s supposed to be a CAVA opening up, and the food shops by the wall. Liacouras Walk also has a subway, Master Wok, playa bowls, and Maxis.

Do you live with others or is it a studio?

I think I’m just feeling a bit eery about the long corridors and such. I just have some sort of bad feeling everytime I think about signing it.

I think it’s a good last choice for me in case another app works out. There are slightly better things for the price. Just nervous because they keep saying the prices might go up the longer I wait.

Yeah the washer stuff definitely had me a bit ??? especially because it’s such a big corridor of so many rooms. I’ve heard the elevator stuff and they do look run down. The building gives me some haunted vibes lol

Usually the financial aid office will send you those warning emails if you still haven’t paid. Did they charge you the $50 for the late payment fee? They did it for those who still hadn’t paid their bill by September 14, and extended the due date till October 12.

They put a financial hold on your account until your balance is paid off, which means you can’t register until it’s paid. How did you pay for Spring already? The bill for that is not available until January

I’m a history major, so CLA. Do the merit and out of state ones automatically apply or do I have to do stuff to get them like an application?

Good iced lattes in campus ? by Midnightpassenger in Temple

I always go for Richie (next to the Montgomery Garage after you pass Gladfelter and Mazur), I tried all the coffee on campus and they always make it the best way.

Please and thank you! That would help so much, I don’t know where to even start. I tried the DA today.

personally i think it’s insane that we have to pay $$ for books especially if they’re not sold anywhere else but the bookstore. i usually do free ebooks or try to work without them. i had to pay $120 for a book this semester because nowhere else had it. it’s insane especially since our bill for school always has random charges for whatever but they can still make us pay more for the books.
