What is a Meal Plan?

A Meal Plan unlocks delicious meals, coffee, snacks, and more, at 15 locations across campus. Your Meal Plan includes Meal Swipes and Cub Cash, conveniently loaded onto your Student or Faculty/Staff ID. No need to carry additional cards or cash!

All meal plans are per semester. If you sign up for a meal plan in the Fall, you will have to register for the same meal plan in the spring. Meal plans do not auto renew.


Swipes

Cub Cash

Cub Cash may be used at any of the dining locations on campus. Visit our locations page for location information, including dining hall menus and hours of operation.

For Resident Plans, Cub Cash balance rolls over from fall to spring semester. Cub Cash expires at the end of the spring semester.

For Commuter Plans, Cub Cash will roll over until used. However, if your voluntary resident or commuter plan is left dormant for over one year, it will expire.
