Meal Plans

swipeYour i-Card lets you pay without cash!

i-Cards (photo IDs) are designed to let you eat when it's convenient, regardless of how much cash you happen to be carrying. The card balance reflects the amount paid for your chosen meal plan.

Each time you make a purchase, the amount is automatically deducted from your balance. The flexibility lets you decide how much to eat at a meal and budget your expenditures accordingly. Additional dollars can be added during the semester.

Cards that are reported lost or stolen are immediately invalidated for your protection.

Meal Plans

Meal plans are designed to fit a variety of life styles. There are plans for those living in the Lincoln Residence Hall or the University Apartments. Student residents on a meal plan do not pay sales tax. That means you save 7 3/4% on every purchase!

All meal plan balances can be carried over from Fall to Spring semester. Any dollar balance left in plans A - D at the end of the Spring Semester is forfeited. You can always add dollars to your i-card as needed throughout the semester to meet your dining needs.

The Food Emporium is open to the public. Cash payment is always accepted.


On-Campus Housing Student Meal Plans:

  • Plan A
    $1,000 per semester. Designed for the student who eats lightly or less frequently.

  • Plan B
    $1,350 per semester. Designed for the average student who occasionally misses a meal period.

  • Plan D
    Apartment Residents: $350 per semester. Save 7 3/4% by not paying sales tax. Why cook when the Food Emporium offers so many great choices? Let us cook a few meals every week so you can study or relax with friends.


Commuter Students, Faculty, and Staff Meal Plan:

  • Plan E
    The "Campus Cash" plan allows you to put as little as $5.00 on your i-Card to discover the convenience of cashless transactions. These funds can be used for food, of course, but also for vending, duplicating, laundry, Auditorium ticket purchases and more!
