Meal Plans
Residential meal plans are required for students living on campus in Stark, Guinn and Parliament Village. However, all students can sign up and enjoy the convenience of dining on campus. Meal plans are easy to use and give you access to all dining locations across campus.
The plans include a combination of board meal swipes and Dining Dollars. Board meals deduct one swipe per entry to our all-you-care-to-eat Dining Hall. Dining Dollars are a stored value account on your ID card used to make purchases at retail locations across campus. Residential board meals will expire at the end of the fall semester, but unused Dining Dollars will roll over from fall semester to spring semester. Students who are not required to purchase a residential plan have the option of purchasing a commuter plan.

Payments for your plan can be deducted in three (3) consecutive monthly payments, starting the month after your meal plan form is submitted and processed.
If you want to enroll in payroll deduction, complete the Faculty Staff 40 Meal Plan Application (please make sure you are logged into your TWU account to see the Google form).
