Accommodation fees do not include meals, except where so stated. The student cards of students placed in a 万博体育官网 residence on the Stellenbosch Campus are activated for taking meals in the particular residence. At the start of the year, students can load a maximum meal quota of R24 130 via a computer terminal in the relevant residence, or through the student portal my.sun.ac.za onto the student fees account. The meals quota may likewise through either of the two methods be replenished during the course of the year until a specific date as communicated in the Calendar 20?20, Part 3?. This due date is normally in the month of August.
After this date the quota may only be replenished with a cash payment at the Cashier's, or by an electronic card payment after signing in at the student portal my.sun.ac.za under "Payment Options, "Fees", "Student fees online payments"). If the amount payable for the meal package is not depleted by the end of the academic year, the remainder is credited to the relevant student fees account.
Students are allowed to allocate a specific part of the meal quota for spending at an additional facility in the dining hall or in the Neelsie where different options of meals are made available. However, students must be aware that meals at this facility are more expensively priced than the normally priced meals; the quota may therefore be depleted sooner if this option is preferred.
