All plans come with two primary\ncomponents – Meals and Dining Dollars\n• The Unlimited plan offers unlimited meals in the Hot Spot or The DüB, with Dining Dollars that\ncan be used at any dining location on campus.\n• The most popular type of plans, though are the Weekly meal plans – offering a certain number of\nmeals (10, 14, or 19) every week that can be used at almost all dining locations on campus. The\nmeals for these plans reset weekly every Sunday morning around 3am.\n• Blended Plans provide either 5 or 7 guaranteed meals each week plus a block of meals which\nare available once the weekly meals are used.\n• New this year, The Commuter Trio Meal Plan. This plan includes Campus Dining Meals, Dining\nDollars, and weekly Hello Fresh deliveries, specifically designed for NAU students living offcampus.<\/p>\nWhy should I have a meal plan?<\/h5>\nHaving a meal plan means you’ll always have access to fresh, healthy food on campus with no worry or\nfuss – you never have to worry about carrying cash. Northern Arizona University’s dining program is\nrecognized as one of the best in the nation. With more than 20 dining locations on campus, the meal\nplan provides unparalleled flexibility and access to incredibly diverse menus. Ease and convenience is\ntaken to the next level with mobile ordering and robot delivery through the Starship app. NAU requires\nall freshmen living on campus to choose from the Unlimited, Weekly or Blended meal plans.<\/p>\nWhat is the difference between the Unlimited plan and the Weekly plans?<\/h5>\n• The Unlimited plan offers unlimited meals within our resident dining locations, the Hot Spot and\nThe DüB. These two locations are “all-you-care-to-eat” dining options.\n• The Weekly plans offer the flexibility to use your meals in both the resident dining locations as\nwell as most of the retail locations across campus with the use of Transfer Specials.<\/p>\nWhat is a Blended Meal plan?<\/h5>\nThese plans are a mix of the weekly and block meal plans. They provide either five or seven new meals\neach week in addition to a larger block of meals that are available at any time. First-year resident students\nmay choose a Blended Meal plan, but traditional block meal plans are not available to first year students\nliving on campus.<\/p>\nWhat is a Block plan?<\/h5>\nBlock plans are another type of meal plan that is offered to upperclassmen and commuter students.\nBlock plans work the same way as the traditional weekly plans but instead of meals by the week, Block\nplans distribute a certain number of meals for the entire semester.<\/p>\nWhat does “all-you-care-to-eat” consist of?<\/h5>\nWe offer “all-you-care-to-eat” dining in our two large resident dining locations or “dining halls” on\ncampus. They each feature several different restaurant-style service platforms where you can choose\nanything from international cuisine, to BBQ and fresh-smoked meats, deli, pasta, or purely plant-based\nfoods. Just one meal swipe allows you access to foods from all of the platforms, you can stay as long as\nyou want and eat as much as you want.<\/p>\nWhat are Transfer Specials?<\/h5>\nThe majority of our retail dining locations feature “Transfer Specials” that allow you to use a meal swipe\nto pay for a combination of retail offerings, similar to a “combo meal”. Each location has different menu\noptions listed, you can also view them on the Campus Dining website or NAUgo. Transfer Specials can be\nused for meals on “Weekly” plans and “Block” plans, but they are NOT available with the Unlimited plan.<\/p>\nWhere can I use my meal plan?<\/h5>\nThere are about 25 locations across campus where you can use weekly and block meals. The best value\nto use your meals is in the Hot Spot and The DüB. If you have one of the Weekly plans, you can also use\nyour meals at the majority of retail locations across campus with the use of a Transfer Special.

The 10 MPW plan allows for up to one unused\nmeal to be carried over to the next week. The 14 MPW plan allows for up to two remaining meals to be\ncarried over and the 19 MPW plan allows for up to three meals to be carried over to the next week.<\/p>\nIf I use up all my weekly meals before the weekends, what are my options?<\/h5>\nIf you do happen to use up all your meals in your Weekly plan before Sunday, you can use your Dining\nDollars to get into one of the resident dining locations or use them for any combination of offerings at\nany of our retail locations on campus. These locations also accept cash, credit and debit.<\/p>\nWhen and how can I change my meal plan?<\/h5>\nYou can change your plan via your student LOUIE account anytime over the summer. Once the semester\nstarts, you have the first 2 weeks to test out the plan and see if it will work for you. If you need to change\nit during these 2 weeks, stop by the Meal Plan Office in the University Union and we’ll be happy to assist\nyou.

Having a meal plan means you’ll always have access to fresh, healthy food on campus with no worry or\nfuss – you never have to worry about carrying cash. Northern Arizona University’s dining program is\nrecognized as one of the best in the nation. With more than 20 dining locations on campus, the meal\nplan provides unparalleled flexibility and access to incredibly diverse menus. Ease and convenience is\ntaken to the next level with mobile ordering and robot delivery through the Starship app. NAU requires\nall freshmen living on campus to choose from the Unlimited, Weekly or Blended meal plans.<\/p>\n
• The Unlimited plan offers unlimited meals within our resident dining locations, the Hot Spot and\nThe DüB. These two locations are “all-you-care-to-eat” dining options.\n• The Weekly plans offer the flexibility to use your meals in both the resident dining locations as\nwell as most of the retail locations across campus with the use of Transfer Specials.<\/p>\n
These plans are a mix of the weekly and block meal plans. They provide either five or seven new meals\neach week in addition to a larger block of meals that are available at any time. First-year resident students\nmay choose a Blended Meal plan, but traditional block meal plans are not available to first year students\nliving on campus.<\/p>\n
Block plans are another type of meal plan that is offered to upperclassmen and commuter students.\nBlock plans work the same way as the traditional weekly plans but instead of meals by the week, Block\nplans distribute a certain number of meals for the entire semester.<\/p>\n
We offer “all-you-care-to-eat” dining in our two large resident dining locations or “dining halls” on\ncampus. They each feature several different restaurant-style service platforms where you can choose\nanything from international cuisine, to BBQ and fresh-smoked meats, deli, pasta, or purely plant-based\nfoods. Just one meal swipe allows you access to foods from all of the platforms, you can stay as long as\nyou want and eat as much as you want.<\/p>\n

Weekly plans offer a limited number of rollover meals. The 10 MPW plan allows for up to one unused\nmeal to be carried over to the next week. The 14 MPW plan allows for up to two remaining meals to be\ncarried over and the 19 MPW plan allows for up to three meals to be carried over to the next week.<\/p>\n
If you do happen to use up all your meals in your Weekly plan before Sunday, you can use your Dining\nDollars to get into one of the resident dining locations or use them for any combination of offerings at\nany of our retail locations on campus. These locations also accept cash, credit and debit.<\/p>\n
You can change your plan via your student LOUIE account anytime over the summer. Once the semester\nstarts, you have the first 2 weeks to test out the plan and see if it will work for you.

Changes or cancellations are not allowed beyond the first two weeks of the semester.\n<\/p><\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
Dining Dollars are included with every meal plan, as a supplement to your meals. They provide a tax-free\ndeclining balance spending account attached to your meal plan that you use just like a debit card.<\/p>\n
Dining Dollars are disbursed at the beginning of each semester once your meal plan payment is\nreceived. Remaining Dining Dollar balances will carry over from the fall to the spring semester,\nbut they must be used by the last day of the spring semester at which time they do expire.<\/p>\n

There are vegan and vegetarian menu items available at virtually all dining locations across campus. The\nnew Lemon Grass Plant Forward Kitchen features a variety of plant-based proteins daily. But, the best\nvariety of plant-based menus can be found in the Hot Spot and The DüB. Both of these locations offer a\nvariety of both vegan and vegetarian dishes every day, with the ability to customize to your liking. There\nare icons on menus which denote if an item is vegetarian or vegan, these can also be found in the NAUgo\napp, and a Plant-Based Guide to dining on campus is available online at nau.edu\/dining.<\/p>\n
We have a robust program around food allergies and special dietary needs. The Hot Spot and The DüB\nboth feature a platform called Simple Servings which menus only “allergy-friendly” recipes that exclude\ningredients with milk, eggs, wheat, soy beans, shellfish, peanuts, treenuts, or gluten (fin fish is sometimes\nserved). Food allergens are also identified on menus and in the NAUgo app so you can plan your meals if\nyou are looking to avoid specific types of foods. We also offer dining tours with our registered dietitian to\nhelp you navigate your choices.\n<\/p><\/body><\/html>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
