What is a Meal Plan?

A Meal Plan unlocks delicious meals, coffee, snacks, and more, at 14 locations across campus. Your Meal Plan includes Meal Swipes and Flex Dollars, conveniently loaded onto your student ID. No need to carry additional cards or cash!

Swipes

Meal Swipes

Meal Swipes can be used at the Fresh Food Company on the 3rd Floor DeNaples Center for all you-care-to-eat access.

Dollars

Flex Dollars

Flex Dollars may be used at any University of Scranton dining location. Visit our locations page for location information, including location menus and hours of operation. Flex Dollars will carry over each year until a student is no longer on a meal plan or no longer attending The University of Scranton.

Exchange

Cash Equivalency

You may also use Meal Swipes at The DeNaples Food Court, located on the first floor of the DeNaples Center; Mulberry Food Court, located in the Mulberry P.O.D. in Montrone Hall; and Einstein Brothers Bagels, located in McGurrin Hall. Cash equivalency allows you to use a meal swipe on a la carte items, up to a specified dollar amount determined by the meal period:  $6.23 for breakfast and late night, and $7.60 for lunch and dinner. If your meal cost exceeds that dollar amount, you will need to cover the difference with Flex, Royal, cash, or credit.

Breakfast: 7 am - 10:59 am

Lunch: 11 am - 3:59 pm

Dinner: 4 pm - 7:59 pm
