FACTS ABOUT MEAL PLANS

1. All resident students must purchase a Meal Plan Dining Membership. First-year resident students are required to have either Plan A (The Community Membership) or Plan A+ (The Community Plus Membership) or Plan A Premium (The Community Premium Membership). After a resident student’s first full year, they may select from Plan A, Plan A+, Plan A Premium, Plan B (The Hilltop Membership) or Plan C (The SMU Social Membership).
2. Resident students who are senior or graduate level may also select Plan D (The Red Membership) or Plan E (The Blue Membership) to fulfill housing board plan contract requirements.
3. All Meal Plan Dining Memberships listed above are available to non-resident students.
4. Members with Plans A, B, C, D and H may eat in the Umphrey Lee Center (RFoC@Lee) or in McElvaney Hall (Mac’s Place) by using membership access swipes.
5. Members with Plan E may eat in the residential restaurants by paying the door entry rate using Flex Dollars.
6. All members are allowed to bring guests provided members are present at the time of transaction. Guests (up to 5 per term) of members on Plan A or Plan A+ are admitted by accessing membership guest access swipes. Guests of members on Plans B, C, D and H (up to 5 guests per each member entry) are admitted by accessing additional access swipes from the member’s plan. Guests of those members on Plan E are admitted by paying the door entry rate per guest from the member’s Flex Dollar account.
7. Flex Dollars are stored-value, declining balance programs that work on the same principles as a debit card.
8. Flex Dollars may be used to purchase meals or commodities at any SMU Dining Services location on campus.
9. Flex Dollar balances carry over from fall to spring term. At the end of spring term all unused Flex Dollar balances are forfeited.
10. Door rates or residential dining for non-members for both the Umphrey Lee Center (RFoC@Lee) is: $6.50 (plus tax) for Breakfast, $7.75 (plus tax) for Lunch, and $8.50 (plus tax) for Dinner. Rates for continuous service periods between standard meal periods are calculated at the meal period prior rate.
11. Dining Memberships may be changed through the last day of add/drop, allowing one change per term for all members. (For the fall term the date is August 29 and for the spring term the date is January 26.) Unless a different meal plan is selected, you will automatically be enrolled in the same meal plan you select for the fall term.
