MEAL PLANS
College life can be challenging, but dining should be effortless. That's why all students living on campus are required to participate in a meal plan.
Flex Dollars are included with our resident meal plans and can be used to purchase meals, snacks, and drinks from Cardinal Kiosk or guest meals in the dining hall. Unused Flex Dollars expire at the end of each semester.
Meal Swipes are used for access to Cardinal Dining Hall for an all-you-care-to-eat meal experience. The weekly allotment resets every Tuesday morning and any unused meals from the previous week will expire.
