<p>I'm freshman to USC, and I still don't get how the payment plan works..
Do we go through usconnect or pay through other things like OASIS
And when can we start making payments and lend loans?
Thank you!</p>
<p>I think the Billing happened this weekend from the Bursar Office. The due date is August 19th - financial aid drops around the week of the due date (I.E. before the 19th)
Info on payment is at the studend financial services site. </p>

<p>Where do we buy meal plans?</p>
<p>@ripemango-if you’re living on campus, you’ll automatically be charged for one.</p>
<p>Meal plans are required based on housing (for example, housing with kitchens does not have the same requirements as standard dorm housing) but you can also select a different meal plan from a variety of options.</p>
<p>Here’s the link to the PDF that explains the various plans (which you should have received in the mail):
<a href=“http://hospitality.usc.edu/forms/meal_plans_faq.pdf[/url]”>http://hospitality.usc.edu/forms/meal_plans_faq.pdf</a></p>
<p>And once you decide on the plan, you can add that plan to your card:
[USCard</a> Services - “Not Just a Card … USCard!”](<a href=“http://www.usc.edu/bus-affairs/admin_serv/uscard_serv/]USCard”>http://www.usc.edu/bus-affairs/admin_serv/uscard_serv/)</p>
<p>I should add that you’d only need to add plan if you don’t already have a suitable default plan.</p>
<p>On my son’s statement there are housing charges of $3539 for room and $45 for the activity fee, but no charge for his meal plan. I thought he selected the $2500 plan. If for some reason he hasn’t selected one yet shouldn’t there be a charge for the default plan? Should we contact someone about this?</p>
<p>Our statement showed $2500 for the default meal plan, which is the one he selected too. Yes I would call or email and ask.</p>
<p>Where were you guys able to select the meal plan? I haven’t chosen yet, and do statements come from OASIS?</p>
<p>How did you guys pay for parking?</p>
<p>Yes ripemango, go to Oasis and then choose USC e-pay/Current Billing Balance. I think we chose the meal plan on the housing website when we accepted the housing contract. I don’t know anything about parking.</p>
<p>Parking will be automatically charged to your account.</p>
<p>I’m a little bit confused. On my billing statement, my meal plan and my parking pass are not listed. Also, is our meal plan put onto our USCard automatically?</p>
<p>@ZeldaFitzgerald, what do you mean by account? You’re saying it should show up on my bill right?</p>
<p>Yes, your student ePay account. The meal plan is automatically put on your card if you selected it.</p>
<p>Parking was JUST assigned, so it probably won’t show on your statement for a few weeks. I am a grad student and it hasn’t appeared on mine yet, either.</p>
