Meal Card/Student account question
I've made purchases on textbooks at the Titles Bookstore using my student card but when I go online to check all my transactions, it wasn't listed. Was the money suppose to come off my Freedom account because for some reason it's still listed at $200 (I got the light meal plan)? The only transactions it lists are for food. Where exactly does the money come off of?

You can only use your meal plan to buy food. Using your student card to buy books means you're using it as a credit card. The balance gets added to your Student Account. Interest is charged at 1.2% at the end of each month.

purchases at titles bookstore that are done on account, will take sometime to show up online on the Student Account Balance (usually 24 -48 hrs, not immediate). same thing goes for when you pay off your account. it takes time for it to appear online on the student account.
