Meal Plans

As You Like It

Added to your Marymount ID cards, the Marymount meal plan makes it easy and convenient for resident and commuter students to grab a bite.

With our meal plan, you get ‘Swipes’ and ‘Dining Dollars.’ Both payments are accepted at multiple dining locations. Here is how you get the best bang for your buck:

Meal Swipes provide the greatest value and access to our meals at Gerard Dining Hall. Meal plan swipes expire at the end of each semester, but for block plans, 25 percent of unused meal swipes are converted to ‘Bernie Cash’ to use the following semester. Meal swipes can also be ‘exchanged’ for an equivalent meal at Bernie’s or at Lola’s Café.

Bernie Dollars are a convenient, cashless way to make purchases using your Marymount ID card, both on campus and at many popular off-campus businesses, including GrubHub deliveries when using the Marymount app. Like a debit card, funds are deducted as purchases are made. Bernie Dollars unspent at the end of a semester roll forward until the student is no longer enrolled at the University, at which point the balance may be used for MU branded merchandise in the Bookstore or may be donated to the Saint Swipes program.
