Meal Plans

Plan Options for 2009 - 2010   

 

 

 

 

 

Meal plans are mandatory for all residence hall students and may only be changed prior to the opening date for the residence halls. This year we have added new "Block" plans. Students with a block meal plan may dine in the Acansa, up to the number of block meals purchased. The Block plans also allow the holder to use the plan to bring in guests. Each guest will reduce the block by one meal. Students with the 5 Day or 7 Day plan may NOT bring guests in, unless they use Flex Dollars to pay for them. The purchase of any of the meal plans is dependent on year classification. Unused Flex Dollars will carry over from fall to spring if a spring board plan is purchased, but they must be used by the end of spring semester to avoid forfeiture.

 

Freshman Options: 7 Day + $100 Flex = $1,218.00 7 Day + $300 Flex = $1,368.00 5 Day + $150 Flex = $1,218.00 5 Day + $200 Flex = $1,243.00

2nd Year and Above Options: (5 Day/7 Day Plans are also available) 150 Block + $300 Flex = $1,152.00 150 Block + $400 Flex = $1,225.00 200 Block + $200 Flex = $1,275.00 $1100 Flex = $1,100.00 (3rd year and above)

The 7-Day Plan offers unlimited access to dining in Acansa Dining Hall - 7 days a week. Come in for a meal, a snack or just to enjoy a cup of coffee or a soda. This is our most economical plan, perfect for the student with a big appetite, small appetite or somewhere in between. Add even more flexibility by purchasing flex dollars, Clyde's Cash or Express Dollars to use in the Food Court, Campus Store or Cafe a la Cart.

The 5-Day Plan also offers unlimited access to dining in our Acansa Dining Hall - Monday through Friday. It operates just like the 7-Day Plan, but is more suitable for the diner who prefers to only eat on campus during the school week. If you travel to your hometown most weekends, this plan is for you! You can also add flex dollars, Clyde's Cash or Express Dollars to your dining plan for use in the Food Court, Campus Store, or Café a la Cart.

Flex operates like a declining balance account that can be used at any of our dining venues, including Acansa Dining Hall, the Food Court, the Campus Store, and Cafe a la Cart. Flex is tax-exempt, offering a savings of 8% in Craighead County. Customers may add up to $150.00 additional Flex dollars per semester to any dining plan with a Flex feature.

Clyde's Cash is a declining balance account that can be used at all of the dining venues, as listed above. These dollars give the holder a 15% discount on their purchases and can be added to your account as often as needed throughout the semester.

Express Dollars is also a declining balance account that can be used at all our dining venues, as listed above. They can be used off campus, as well, at local retailers. See the Student Account Services webpage for more information.

The Faculty/Staff Meal Plan or 15 for $50 plan is a meal plan just for ASU faculty and staff. It offers the same access to Acansa Dining Hall that the other meal plans offer, just at a discounted price. It can be purchased at any time throughout the semester and as many times as needed.
