Choosing the meal plan that’s right for you can be confusing. Take a look at the descriptions below to help you understand your plan options. You can also take the meal plan assistant survey, view menus, and add more flex dollars to your card by visiting dineoncampus.com/saintmarys. Also note, cash will not be accepted at any of our on-campus dining locations.

Terms to understand:

  • Flex dollars are just like cash and can be used at any on-campus dining location
  • Meal exchanges mean you can get a meal at the Cardinal Club (Burger 507 or Bowl Life) instead of Toner Dining Hall

To-go containers available

For a one-time, $5 fee, you can also get a reusable to-go container from the Toner Dining Hall. These can be used if you want to take your food to-go and eat elsewhere. (It’s not for packing up leftovers or taking extra with you when you leave.) Bring the empty container back and throw it on the dish line to be washed. Grab a clean one to use next time!
