On-Campus Meal Plans 2025–2026
Undergraduate students living in the residence halls
Community is one of the great reasons why students in residence halls are required to have a meal plan. Food brings people together—whether you eat in the dining commons or pick up snacks to go with friends. While students are automatically enrolled in the Blue & Gold Plan, an upgraded unlimited meal plan is available to meet your needs.

Available plans
Two meal plans are available for students who live in the residence halls. Meal plans are made up of two components:
- Meal Swipes: A set number of meal swipes to use each week at the dining commons or as a meal equivalency at participating locations. Meal swipes may only be used by the meal plan holder.
- Flex Dollars: A set number of flex dollars to use each semester that function like cash dollars and work on a declining balance.

|---|---|
| Blue & Gold Plan | Ultimate Plan |
| 14 meal swipes per week (1 per meal period) |
Unlimited meal swipes per week |
| 600 flex dollars (300 per semester) | 1000 flex dollars (500 per semester) |
| Included in your Housing Contract | + $950 per year ($475 per semester) |
Add-on flex dollars
