<p>Does anyone know if the meal plan is included in the board fees? (Is it already accounted for when they tell you how much your first year will cost?)</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>The meal plan is included in the board fees. When they send you the letter detailing the cost of attendance, the meal plan is included. About half of the students don’t use their full meal plan, but BC offers different reimbursement options. However, you shouldn’t expect to get the full reimbursement. We used to just stock up on things like bottled water, snacks for the room, etc.</p>
<p>I thought your unused meal plan dollars were forfeited at year end.</p>
