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.
Meal Plan Terms:
Meal swipes can be used for an all-you-care-to-eat meal in the View or as a meal exchange in retail.
Meal exchange allows you to use a meal swipe for a bundled meal combo in a retail location like Henry's.
Points are included with select meal plans and can be used like debit dollars for snacks, drinks, or meals at our dining locations. Points are valid for an academic year and expire at the completion of the spring semester.
Mount Money can be spent on-campus for dining purchases, and can also be used at select off-campus retailers. Unused Mount Money expires upon graduation.
