What is a Meal Plan?

A Meal Plan unlocks delicious meals, coffee, snacks, and more, at 8 locations across campus. Your Meal Plan includes Meal Swipes and Flex Dollars, conveniently loaded onto your student ID. No need to carry additional cards or cash!

Swipes

Meal Swipes

Meal Swipes give you access to any of our all-you-care-to-eat locations, including South Dining Hall and Cub Café. All you need to do is present your ID card to the cashier at the South Dining Hall or Cub Café and the cashier swipes the ID and allows you access.  

Once you swipe there is a 15 minute block until you can swipe again. As well, if you swipe at the Cub Café for a lunch or dinner take-out, you will be not be permitted to swipe again until the next time zone (lunch take-out next swipe 4 p.m.; dinner and dinner take-out next swipe 8 p.m. late night). 

All block plan meal swipes and guest meal swipes need to be used in the same semester they are purchased.  


Dollars

Flex Dollars

Flex Dollars may be used at any dining location. Visit our locations page for location information, including dining hall menus and hours of operation. FLEX dollars will roll over from the fall semester to the spring semester.
