Swipes

Meal Swipes

All Unlimited meal swipes give you access to either of our all-you-care-to-eat dining halls, including The Rebel Market, the Grill at 1810 and The Dish at the Residential Colleges.

A Plus 1 swipe is one swipe per day, without roll over, that is for $8.50 worth of prepared menu items at any of our national brand locations or the food trucks. The Plus 1 swipe is an essential part of the Unlimited meal plan!  Plus 1 swipes reset each day at 2:00 am.  

Weekly Meal Swipes work at all locations on campus; they will cover the entire cost of entry into one of our all-you-care-to-eat dining halls or will count as an $8.50 cash equivalence towards prepared menu items at any national brand on campus, or the food trucks.  Weekly meals reload each Sunday at 2:00 am.

Unused meals or plus ones from semester/term plans are not carried over into the next semester/term, or refundable.

Meal swipes and Plus 1 swipes are accepted at the Rebel Market, the Dish at the RC, Chick Fil A, Panda Express, McAlister's, Qdoba, Blenz Bowls, Raising Cane's, Steak and Shake, Starbucks, Einstein's Brother's Bagels, Jimmy John's, Comet Fish Sushi, and in the POD locations for prepared menu items. 

**Meal swipes are not accepted at the Barnes and Noble Cafe inside the bookstore, but there are two fully licensed Starbucks on campus that DO accept meal swipes**

Dining Dollars

Dining Dollars, aka "Bonus Flex," works just like Flex, but it only works at campus restaurants where meal swipe are accepted (does not work in vending machines) and it expires at the end of the semester. Don't worry- if you have bonus Flex, your card will automatically use it first before dipping into your Flex account.

Flex Dollars are restricted to food locations on campus including prepared food locations, delivery robots, Ole Miss sports concessions, food trucks, vending machines, coffee shops, convenience stores, and for food items only in the Ole Miss Bookstore.
