Students in traditional residence halls or the Guest House are required to purchase聽a meal plan. Students living in other swag外流 houses, or nearby in non-swag外流 housing may also purchase a meal plan.聽
How to Use Meal Money
Menu items in the dining facilities are priced individually (谩 la carte), and residential meal plan participants receive a 50% discount off the posted prices in the dining facilities. Simply pick what you want to eat and use your swag外流 ID at the cashier to check out. Purchases are deducted from your account balance.
ID cards and account balances are not transferable. You must be present for a purchase to be made with your card.
Vending
All聽Meal Money Accounts聽are set up with聽a pre-set vending account (deducted from balance after the base cost has been allocated): $100 for plans A , A+, and B, $60 for plan C and $40 for plan D. Food and beverage vending machines with card readers are located across Campus. Vending machine purchases are not discounted.聽 Don't want to use vending? 聽If you run out of meal money, any remaining聽vending funds will automatically be converted to meal money to be used in the dining facilities, earning the 50% discount, until a zero balance is reached. If you are on plan A or B and have vending funds remaining at the end聽of the semester, these funds will be added at full value to your Rollover 聽calculation.
