So, what exactly does your new HPU Extra card offer? Here are a few of the highlights.
Extra Simplicity - Your card serves as an ID, which allows
any office on campus to easily identify you as a High Point University member.
With your HPU Extra, the University can provide you with services as
quickly and accurately as possible.
Extra Excitement - Use your card to enter any of our athletic and student life
events for free! Some offices on campus require students to show ID cards in exchange for tickets or entrance
to cultural activities on campus. Be sure you carry your HPU Extra with you at all times.
Extra Discounts - With your HPU Extra, you will have access to student
discounts at places around town, such as movie theaters, music concerts, theatrical performances,
and any other business crazy enough to give you discounts just because you are enrolled in school.
Extra Security - Your HPU Extra will allow you access to the outside doors of your
residence hall and other important common areas on campus, such as the Library,
computer labs, workout rooms, etc.
Extra Convenience - Chances are you owe about $68.87 in spare change
to your friends and family for all those times that you wanted a Coke but didn't have any
money on you. With your HPU Extra, you can stop looking at snack machines with wishful puppy eyes
and start quenching your thirst! Your new HPU Extra card gives you access to all vending machines on
campus. Go get that Butterfinger!
Extra Status - We are in the process of identifying businesses around the area
that are most popular with our students, and we are working with those businesses
to accept the HPU Extra as payment for meals and services.
A list of participating local businesses will be available shortly on this website.
Extraordinary - Having the HPU Extra card in your hand means that you are headed for
an extraordinary future because you are a part of High Point University. All that
you have to do is to keep focus on your values and your education and we will provide the rest.
Please feel free to contact the IT Office if you have any questions.

Where do I get my new HPU Extra Card?
If you need a replacement HPU Extra, please visit our Safety Office.
When they ask you to smile, feel free to strike a pose! It's your card!
Freshmen. If you are an incoming freshman, you will be given an opportunity to get you HPU Extra during
your Orientation process. If you have already been given a student ID, you will receive a new one
in your welcome packet when you arrive on campus. If you have not yet stopped by our safety office
to have a picture taken, do not worry! We will take care of you when you arrive on campus.
Upperclassmen. If you are a returning student, you already have a student ID card in your possession.
A new HPU Extra card will be generated and given to you when you arrive on campus.
EDP and Graduate Students. Evening Degree and Graduate students should stop by the Safety Office to obtain a new ID card.
The HPU Extra is required to access certain facilities on campus after normal business hours. Without this card, access may be limited.

We can't possibly address all of the questions you might have about your new HPU Extra, but
here are answers to a few questions that might cross your mind.
|
Where can I use the money that is on my card? |
Your HPU Extra has three accounts. Each account provides service to
a different experience of your life on and off campus.
|
|
|
General Account |
Vending Machines
Campus Concierge
Post Office
Safety Office
Local Businesses
|
|
Dining Dollars |
Cafeteria
Chick-Fil-A
C-Store
Starbucks
Subway
|
|
Bookstore |
University Bookstore |
|
How do I know how much money I have in my account? |
|
|
|
Can I transfer money from my Dining Dollars to my General account? |
Unfortunately, no. The money that is in your dining account can only be used in
the cafeteria and eateries on campus.
|
|
Will I lose my dining dollars? |
Yes, your dining dollars expire at the end of each semester. The money in this account is tied directly to the meal plan that you choose, which may change from semester to semester.
|
|
Will I ever lose the balance in my General or Bookstore Account? |
Yes, upon Graduation, at which time any balances remaining in the General or Bookstore accounts are non-refundable. Balances rollover from your Freshman to your Senior year, but you must spend any money in your General or Bookstore accounts BEFORE you graduate.

Transaction History
If you are like we are, you want to know on a daily basis where your money went and
(more importantly) how much money you have left to on your HPU Extra card.
Please visit http://community.highpoint.edu.
You will have access to statements (just like your bank statement) for each
account that you have.
Meal Plans
Meal plans will work like they always have.
For issues pertaining to a board plan (whether on campus or off campus),
please contact Student Accounts at (336) 841-9259 or via email at
studentaccounts@highpoint.edu.
Building Access
If you are a student living on campus and you run into issues with accessing a particular building, such as your residence hall,
please contact Student Life at (336) 841-9231. For issues that arise after normal business hours, please contact the Saftey Office
at (336) 841-9112.
Adding Money to the HPU Extra
If you would like to put money on your HPU Extra card using cash or check,
please visit the Card Office in Roberts Hall, Room 248.
If you or your parents (or even grandparents) would like to use a credit card to place money on the HPU Extra,
you may go online at http://community.highpoint.edu and use the "Guest Deposit" feature.
There is a module with detailed instructions on the landing page.
You may also log in using your campus username and password. Once you are logged, click on the tab in that reads "HPU Extra," and
there is a section on the page that gives information on making a deposit.
For issues with passwords logging into the Community System,
students should contact the Helpdesk at (336) 883-HELP or online at http://support.highpoint.edu.
Can I use money allotted for books on coffee instead?
Although we sympathize with you, the answer is, "No."
We want to help you and your parents guarantee that you will not run out of money
when trying to access some of our vital services on campus. Money for books can only be used at our
Barnes & Noble on campus. Money for dining services can only be used at our Cafe, convenience store and
other campus food facilities.
The general spending account (think of it more as "fun money") can be used for vending on campus (drink
and snack machines), business around the area, and any other campus facility that accepts the HPU Extra as
a method of payment.

As you know, your card is now an important part of your High Point University life and it carries a cash balance for you. (If you lose your card and your roommate starts gaining weight I would start worrying). Don't wait! Get your card cancelled immediately online.
Go to http://community.highpoint.edu, log in using your HPU username and password and click on I have lost my card Check box.
