Wolfie Wallet is different from the Meal Plan.
It is:
- Accepted at more locations
- Refundable
It is NOT:
- Exempt from New York State sales tax
- Billable to your Student Account (SOLAR)
- Payable directly by Financial Aid

If you are confident that you will use all of the funds you add by the end of the semester, adding funds to your meal plan can help you save money, as all student meal plans are tax-exempt. However, meal plan funds are non-refundable and must be used in full by the designated meal plan end date.
For more information on meal plans, visit our Meal Plan website.
However, if you are too busy to track your meal plan balance, Wolfie Wallet is a better choice. Wolfie Wallet purchases are not sales tax-exempt, but the funds you add will not have an end date and will rollover until you graduate or withdraw from the University.
