Healthy ways to gain weight, ways to increase apetite

Hi,
I am a 19 year old male, my height is around 5ft7in or about 170 cm, and I weigh around 93 pounds. As you can tell, I am extremely thin, so thin that you would think that I am intentionally starving myself for some reason. This is not intentional. I have always been significantly thinner than others most of my life. I would like to fix this, as at the moment I am embarrassingly weak and probably unattractive to most people.
My diet is very poor and I do not eat very much at all. I always eat a full breakfast, but I will usually have a very light lunch and will usually have a very light dinner (sometimes I skip dinner completely). I just seem to not feel hunger as strongly as most people. Occasionally, I can ignore hunger completely if I am working on or am involved in something.
When I am hungry enough to be forced to get food, even just having a very small portion will satisfy me enough to not feel hungry, and I usually stop eating once I feel that it is not necessary.
Lack of access to good food also makes things a little difficult. I am a poor college student currently living with my parents, and my parents don't cook often and I am usually forced to eat overpriced food on campus, and my lack of funds sort of promotes my bad dietary habits.
I would like advice on breaking these bad food habits. Gorging myself on $1 mcdonalds burgers everyday is probably a very bad idea, and "just eat more" sounds simple enough, but has been hard to implement for me. I appreciate any advice I can give on this situation, especially if one has experiences with eating disorders similar to mine.
