Meal Plans
With all of TU’s dining options, students can pick the meal plan that best suits their needs. Each meal plan includes Dining Dollars that can be used at any of the on-campus dining venues. They are accepted for food and beverages and in most vending machines. All Dining Dollars are assessed per semester. Dining Dollars must be used within the academic year, as they do not transfer to the following year and are non-refundable. Please review the first- and second-year housing and dining requirement.

Meal Trades
Meal trades are an added convenience that allow you to use a meal swipe from your TU dining plan on a fixed-price combo at any eatery in the Student Union. This additional option along with a meal swipe at Pat Case Dining Center for all-you-care-to-eat food allows you maximum flexibility with any meal plan.
There are two ways to utilize this meal swipe trade at eateries:
Mobile: Open your Mobile Ordering app from your mobile device (Apple Store & Google Play), scroll to find the Meal Trade combo at the desired eatery and view eligible and customizable options.
In-person: Visit any participating eatery and look for signs that display the Meal Trade combo meals. When ordering at the register, simply ask the staff member to apply a meal swipe trade, and you are good to go!
Meal Trade Availability
Breakfast: 7 a.m. – 11 a.m.
Lunch: 11 a.m. – 4:25 p.m.
Dinner: 4:25 p.m. – until venue closing time
You can use one meal swipe trade per meal period, so plan accordingly to get the most out of your meal plan. Enjoy the convenience and flexibility that meal trades bring to your dining experience!
