- Swipe your SandDollar$ Card: You will present your SandDollar Card to the cashier, who will swipe it at the register
- Dining at the Islander Dining Hall: You will swipe your SandDollar$ Card (or scan your phone) at the register of the front entrance of the Islander Dining Hall. One swipe at the register = one meal swipe. One swipe is good for all you care to eat in one visit. Dependent on your Meal Plan, you have Unlimited, 200, 160, 110, or 25 Meal Swipes to use for the entire semester.
- Dining at Retail Locations: When dining at a retail location on campus you can use either a meal trade or dining dollars.
- What are Meal Trades? Low dining dollars? No worries! Use a meal trade. Meal trades add greater flexibility to our Meal Plans by allowing you to "trade" a Meal Swipe for a combo at a retail dining location. Meal Trades are accepted at Chick-Fil-A, Burger361, Panda Express, Subway, and the Market in the Dining Hall.
- LIFE SHOULD BE EASY. Just because you have your own kitchen doesn't mean you have time to cook. Buying a Meal Plan means: No shopping. No lunches to pack. No kitchen fires (hopefully). Plus, you don't have to carry cash.
- IT'S SOCIAL. Sharing food is a perfect excuse to catch up with friends or connect about a project. Eating on campus makes it easier to stay in touch and easier to get things done.
- GOOD FOOD. Our Chefs love to cook and we can accommodate all sorts of dietary needs without any fuss. Vegan, Flexitarian, or Gluten-Free? We'll have options for you every day. With over 10 locations across campus, there is always something to satisfy your cravings!
- TIME IS EVERYTHING! If you commute to campus chances are time is your most valuable commodity. Eating on campus makes it easier to manage a busy schedule! Fuel up between class, grab something on the run, and keep those extra minutes for yourself.
- SUSTAINABLE. SERIOUSLY. Our provider, Chartwells, has made industry-leading commitments to environmentally and social responsible sourcing. By eating on campus you know your food has been Sourced with care.
