Fall 2017 – Spring 2018 Dining Plan Details

You can use your meals in any of three all–you–care–to–eat or ten residential block plan restaurants. In the all–you–care–to–eat facilities, one meal is deducted from your account upon entry. At residential block plan restaurants, each item is priced in dollars that are converted to meals at the register.

The guest meal price at residential locations is $9.00 for breakfast and $11.00 for lunch and dinner. The block plans provide meals at discounted prices: $6.84 per meal on Block 275, $7.33 per meal on Block 225 and $8.11 per meal on Block 175.

To help you decide what plan is for you, use this calculator sheet. The Block 275 plan is about 17 meals per week, Block 225 is about 14 and Block 175 is about 11 meals per week.

We also strongly recommend using E.Z. Charge options.

Mizzou offers open dining; you may choose to dine in any residential block plan restaurant or all-you-care-to-eat facility regardless of where you live on campus. Additionally, you may share your meals. As the account holder, you must be present to purchase meals for your guests.

At select locations you may also purchase meals to go.

At residential block plan restaurants, students and guests order from a menu or select items from a shelf. These items are priced in cash and are converted to (or exchanged for) partial meals when they check out with the cashier. Here’s an example:

Baja Grill is a Caribbean-Mexican restaurant that operates as an a la carte dining plan location. If you choose a Chicken Quesadilla ($3.25), an order of chips ($1.00) and Baja’s Signature Bean Dip ($2.75); the order total totals $7.00.

The student or guest tells the cashier they are paying with their dining plan, gives the cashier her/his ID card, and the cashier swipes the card, removing one meal. In a residential block plan restaurant, students can exchange 1 meal for $7.00. If the student purchases less than $7.00 or more than $7.00, partial meals are deducted from their dining plan. For example:

In this case, the cashier deducts .5 meal from the student’s dining plan.
