Meal Plans
With various dining options, students can pick the meal plan that best suits their needs. Meal plans can include weekly meal swipes that work at the cafeteria and points, or just points. Points are dining cash that can be used at the market, or at either dining venue tax-free. Points must be used within the fall and spring semester, as they do not transfer to the following year and are non-refundable.
Every residential meal plan includes a set number of swipes that can be used for meal exchanges at Kitchen 1904 instead of the cafeteria. Meal Plan A offers 7 swipes, Meal Plan B has 5, and Meal Plan C provides 3. These swipes are included in your weekly allotment, which resets each week.
All students living in on-campus housing are required to have a meal plan. Meal plan choices vary due to assigned accommodations. Students in Banning Hall, Draper Hall, Methodist Hall and Walker Hall are required to have a residential plan, and students residing in Cokesbury have the option of a residential plan or an apartment plan.
Meal plan rates can be found here.
