Meal Plan Basics

Our meals are offered with unlimited seconds. Choosing a balanced meal from the many options Converse Dining offers gives you a terrific value.

Students who live on-campus are required to have a meal plan and are automatically enrolled in the 15-Value Meal Plan. Students may change to a different meal plan by coming to the dining services office located in Gee Dining Room. You have until the last day of the 2010 Fall Semester Drop/Add period to make any changes to your meal plan.

Expense Dollars
Expense Dollars work just like a checking account. You deposit money into your account and charges are automatically deducted. Although the meal plans include some Flex Dollars, most students add additional money to their Expense account.

Expense Dollars can be added to your account in any amount.
You automatically save 7% with every purchase compared to cash because you are exempt from S.C. tax.
Expense Dollars can be used Sandella's, Valkyries Station and Gee Dining Room.
Expense Dollars you add to your account carry over from semester to semester and from year to year.

Contact the dining office to add Expense Dollars to your account! We accept Visa & Mastercard.

BLOCK PLAN OVERVIEW

We offer a “block plan” as well as the “traditional meals per week” in order to provide maximum flexibility. We take pride in meeting each student’s food preferences and busy schedule. The plan provides a block of meals to be allocated by the student over the course of the semester. The number of meals consumed each week (or day) is at the discretion of the student.
