Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use my card?
You must present your Skidmore ID (this is also your meal card) at each meal or each time you make a purchase at any dining location.

Can a friend use my card?
Meal plans and points are for the sole use of the purchaser and are not transferable. You may bring a guest using one of your three guest meal passes.

Can I treat a friend using two "meals"?
You are the only person allowed to use your "meals". If you have a meal plan, you may use one of your three guest meal passes so your friend can join you.
 
What if my card is lost or stolen?
Lost ID cards must be reported in person to the Skidmore Card Office immediately! You are solely responsible for all usage on your card.

What do I do if my Declining Balance runs low?
Each time you purchase a snack or a full meal, you may ask the cashier to tell you how many meals and/or Declining Balance Points you have remaining. If your Points run low, you can add Declining Balance Points to your account at any time by going to the Skidmore Card Office located on the lower level of the Starbuck Center. Your purchase will be billed to you through the Bursar’s Office.
