Ultimate Access

Ultimate Access means that you will be able to dine-in at Market Central and The Perch at Sutherland, as many times as you wish, all day, every semester. You will never run out of meals! Since you can eat as much as you want, when you want it, meal plans with Ultimate Access offer the most flexibility and value. In addition, Ultimate Access comes with a set amount of Dining Passes that can be used for take-out meals in Market To-Go. Read more about Ultimate Access options.

Dining Passes

Dining Passes can be used only to dine-in at Market Central and The Perch at Sutherland, and for take-out meals in Market To-Go. Every time you enter Market Central, The Perch at Sutherland, or Market To-Go, a Dining Pass will be deducted from your meal plan. Dining Passes are good for the entire semester; if they are not used by the end of the semester, the remaining balance is forfeited. Read more about Dining Pass options.

Dining Dollars

Dining Dollars work as a dollar-for-dollar exchange at all of our dining facilities on campus and are available in various amounts on almost all of our meal plans. Dining Dollars are subtracted from your meal plan as you go and are good for the entire semester. If they are not used by the end of the semester, the remaining balance is forfeited. If you run out of Dining Dollars before the end of the semester, you can purchase them anytime in $50 increments through Panther Central. Read more about meal plans that include Dining Dollars.
