What is included in a meal plan?Meal Counts: Meal counts are the value-booster to meal plans. Meal counts are used for “All You Care to Eat” at Main Street Dining at Tawanka, or Baldy’s during specified hours, or at the Eagle Express and Morris Street Market for a $5 value.

À la Carte: À la carte points can be used at any dining location. Students pay for each item individually using points.

Eagle Flex: Eagle Flex is a prepaid, declining balance account similar to a debit card. Eagle Flex is used to purchase goods on and off campus from merchants who participate in the program.

Choices:Dining plans are prepaid at the beginning of each quarter, with a preset number of points to spend on food during that quarter. Campus cash registers scan student IDs (EagleCards) and subtract the point value of each meal. Points are safer than carrying cash and it’s easier to stay on budget using them. A printout of where and when points are spent is available anytime. Call 509.359.2540 or stop by the business office in Tawanka for more information.

To use your meal plan, give the cashier your EagleCard and state, “I would like to use (à la carte/meal counts/Flex) to pay for this.”

Dining (À la Carte) Points: Can be used at any dining location on campus, as well as the Thinking of You (TOY) gift program.
