By now you’ve probably already purchased a semester dining plan. Your Flashcard is key for on campus dining and will get you food at any dining outlet on campus with your meal plan or FlashCash.

Meal Plan Tips:

1. Check your balance on a regular basis through My Account on Flashline.

2. Check the balance guides located in the dining halls to see what your balance should be each week.

3. If your balance is low, you can add money to your account at any point during the year.

4. If you have extra money at the end of spring semester, you can purchase foods in bulk at many of the markets on campus.
