We have a variety of meal plans designed to meet your needs while on campus whether you are an on-campus residential student or commuter. A meal plan is a pre-paid account for your on-campus meals. At the start of the term, you pay for all the meals you will eat in the dining centers for the semester. Then you just swipe your Bearcat Card every time you enter a dining area. All meal plans have the option to include Bearcat Card dollars that provides added flexibility to use at other eateries on or off campus, such as the Food Court in Tangeman University Center (TUC).
