Residence hall meal plans are weekly so unused meals do not roll over. These meal plans are designed to allow our on-campus students who live in the residence halls to better manage their meals each week rather than ending the semester with a block of unused meals. The weekly meal plans allow Dining Services to adequately plan operating costs. Without the ability to plan budgets at the beginning of the year and plan for staff, food costs, facility improvements, etc. we would have to raise meal plan rates.
- Residence hall meal plans reset every Saturday morning at 12:00 a.m. At that point, all unused meals disappear, and a new set of weekly meals will appear on your RamCard.
- On-campus students are permitted to use two meal swipes per meal period (to pay for additional expenses, to get an extra to-go meal, or to swipe in a friend)– we have a total of five meal periods, allowing the use of up to 10 meal swipes per day.
