Meal Card

BSU Food Services provides both convenience and variety.  With your 10-, 15-, or 19-week meal plan, meals can be obtained by using your Bowie card in the Lucy Whatley Cafeteria.

Flex Dollars

Flex dollars that correspond with your meal plan can be used in any food service venue on campus. See Food Services for more information.

Bookstore

The BSU Bookstore provides the campus community required textbooks, trade books, and supplies as well as Bulldog apparel, gifts, and souvenirs. Funds on the online account may be used to purchase items in the bookstore.

In addition to using the Bowie card for purchases, students are required to have a Bowie card to write checks as well as sell books back at the end of each semester.

Office of Campus Safety

The Office of Campus Safety, located in Robinson Hall, accepts funds on the Bowie card to purchase parking permits as well as to pay parking fines.

Library

After the Bowie card is received, you must register your library number at the circulation desk at the Thurgood Marshall Library.

The Bowie card may be used along with a validation card at any University System of Maryland library. The validation card can be obtained in the Bowie Card Office in the Wiseman Student Centre two weeks after registration.
