A: No. The Dining Center is an All-You-Care-To-Eat facility and all food is to be consumed in the Dining Center. You are allowed one piece of fruit or one ice cream treat as a take-out item. This is a way to meet your needs for an easy-carry snack and still control costs. Uncontrolled take-out would lead to a more expensive meal plan, as well as food safety issues.
A: Traditional meal plans offer not only a fixed number of meals per week, but a fixed number of meals per meal period. Only one meal may be swiped per meal period. The Traditional 12 meal plan is priced lower than the Block 150 plan because of this principle.
A: Upper-class students will want to check the main page for the deadline to change their plan. Your account will be pro-rated depending upon either the amount of time that has elapsed or the amount of your meal plan that has been used.
A: Yes you may. To use student charge visit CNAV My Housing>My Dining, to use cash, check or credit card please visit the ID office. There is a $25.00 minimum deposit.
A: The U.S.A. plan works only in the Dining Center. The allocation of Dining $ on the U.S.A. plan is for when you need to purchase meals that must be eaten outside the Dining Center.
A: The meal exchange is a choice of predetermined meals at the Bullet Hole, Dive or Ike's. Only holders of the Block Meal plans or the Traditional 12 may exchange a meal at these locations.
A: Money stored on your student ID to be used as cash in any of the dining venues and Flats. Students who are using Dining $ associated with a purchased meal plan receive a 10% discount on purchases at the Bullet Hole, Ike’s, the Commons, and the Dive and a 15% discount in the Dining Center.
