Flex Dollars roll over from winter to spring semesters, but will expire at the end of the school year. Meals start over at the beginning of each semester. Flex Dollars and meals not used are forfeited and non-refundable.

Having trouble selecting a meal plan?

Consider your daily routine. Do you eat three meals a day? Will your class schedule, studying, extracurricular activities and social events interfere with dining? Will you miss dinner due to employment or evening classes? Anticipating the answers to these and similar questions will help you to select a meal plan that best fits your lifestyle.

Do you have particular dietary needs?  No problem!  Our Campus Dining Services Program can accommodate your special dietary requirements.  For more information, please contact the Dining Office at 812-488-2951.
