Each undergraduate student who registers to attend at least one class on Auburn's main campus is automatically enrolled in a Meal Plan based on the student's classification and housing status. 

Dining Dollars are funds loaded to a student's Tiger ID that can be used to purchase food on campus. They may be used at any Tiger Dining facility, including food trucks, athletics concessions and the Hey Day Market. Dining Dollars may also be used for entry into the two dining halls at the regular retail rate.

Any Dining Dollars remaining in a student's account at the end of fall semester will roll over to the following spring semester. Any Dining Dollars remaining at the end of spring semester will be available until the last class day of the academic year (i.e., the end of summer semester). All Dining Dollars expire at the end of the academic year. 

With a variety of healthy options and a lower cost per meal, a meal swipe grants you entry to our dining halls The Edge at Central Dining, the Wellness Kitchen and Village Tiger Zone. Meal swipes allow students to access these facilities over the course of the semester during normal hours of operation. These dining halls always offer a variety of foods; allowing you to create a plate according to what you’re craving at the moment. Menus are available online for your convenience. Please note that any unused meal swipes expire at the end of each semester.

Meal swipes may also be used to purchase a meal at Foy on the Fly’s CAM location or the Roaming Tiger Food Truck (opening Fall 2026), or to purchase a whole pizza (limit one per day) via Grubhub’s Tiger Zone To Go.

If you want your meal to go, please request a to-go box when you use a meal swipe to enter the dining hall. You must fill the box, close it and exit the dining hall. You may not eat out of a to-go container while sitting in the dining hall.

If you want to eat in the dining hall AND get a meal to go, you must go back to the register and use another meal swipe to purchase a to-go box after you’ve finished your meal in the dining hall.

Meal plans may only be used by the account holder. 

Weekly meal swipes guarantee dining hall access for the entire semester at a lower cost per meal. Weekly meal swipes begin on Sunday morning and reload for the next week after evening service on Saturday night. These meal swipes provide access to The Edge at Central Dining, the Wellness Kitchen and Village Tiger Zone. These dining halls always offer a variety of healthy and favorite foods; allowing you to create a plate according to what you’re craving in the moment. Menus are available online for your convenience. Please note that any unused meal swipes expire at the end of each week.

Meal swipes may also be used to purchase a meal at Foy on the Fly’s CAM location or the Roaming Tiger Food Truck (opening Fall 2026), or to purchase a whole pizza (limit one per day) via Grubhub’s Tiger Zone To Go.

Weekly meal swipes run Sunday morning – Saturday night. Once you’ve used your 5 or 10 meals for the week, you will need to either use dining dollars to pay for your meal or wait until the next Sunday morning for more meals to be available.

If you want your meal to go, please request a to-go box when you use a meal swipe to enter the dining hall. You must fill the box, close it and exit the dining hall. You may not eat out of a to-go container while sitting in the dining hall.

If you want to eat in the dining hall AND get a meal to go, you must go back to the register and use another meal swipe to purchase a to-go box after you’ve finished your meal in the dining hall.

All Access guarantees dining hall access for the entire semester at the lowest cost per meal. All Access meals refresh every 15 minutes. These meal plans include unlimited access to Village Tiger Zone, Wellness Kitchen, The Edge at Central Dining. Roaming Tiger Food Truck, and Foy on the Fly’s CAM location during normal hours of operation.  Dining halls always offer a variety of healthy and favorite foods; allowing you to create a plate according to what you’re craving in the moment.  Menus are available online for your convenience. All Access meal plans give you the option to dine as you chose, as often as you would like during the day. An All Access meal plan gives you the greatest value and best flexibility.

If you want your meal to go, you must request a to-go box when you use a meal swipe to enter the dining hall. Then fill the box, close it and exit the dining hall. You may not eat out of a to-go container while sitting in the dining hall.

If you want to eat in the dining hall AND get a meal to go, you must go back to the register and use another meal swipe to purchase a to-go meal (box) after you’ve finished your meal in the dining hall.

During the first 10 class days of the semester, you may make one meal plan change per day.  Every meal plan change will be reflected on your eBill. 

Learn how to change your plan

After the 10th class day, no changes may be made.

Tiger Dining offers a meal plan reduction for First-time First-year Auburn students who are members of a fraternity with a required meal plan.  There is no application required for this program. Greek Life provides a list of qualifying members to the Campus Dining office at the conclusion of each semester. Any credit will be automatically deposited to the student’s Student Financial Services (eBill) account after final exams are complete.

To be eligible, students must:

• Participate in an Orange or Blue meal plan.
• They must be a member of a fraternity that has a required meal plan providing at least 10 meals per week.

How it works:

Only the dining dollars portion of the meal plan is eligible for a refund. If there are no dining dollars left, then there will be nothing to refund. However, if you are eligible for a refund, it will be made to your eBill account by the end of December (Fall) and the end of May (Spring).

Example:

A student is registered for the Orange 5 + $475 meal plan which provides 5 meal swipes weekly at the Village Tiger Zone or The Edge at Central Dining, plus $475 dining dollars that may be used at any retail dining location on campus.  The student also has a required fraternity meal plan for 10 meals each week at the fraternity house.  At the end of the semester, the student only used $275 of their $475 dining dollars, so they receive a credit of $200.

Many students completely use their dining funds by mid-semester, so we do our best to make adding funds quick and easy. These additional dining funds are available via your Tiger Card – just like the regular dining plans.  These funds NEVER EXPIRE and you may request a refund at any time.  Add Funds via GET Mobile

There are two options for adding dining dollars:

Optional dining dollars are exactly like any other dining dollars.  They may be used to purchase food at any on-campus dining location, including food trucks, athletics concessions, and the Hey Day Market.

Tiger Club funds  are also available via your Tiger Card, but offer a bit more flexibility.  These funds may be used to purchase food anywhere on campus and at participating retailers in the local community.  Participating Locations List

**When you are near the end of your regular dining dollars, place your next order via Grubhub.  Grubhub will drain your regular dining dollars, then open the optional account to complete the purchase. Once your regular dining dollars account is empty, your optional funds will be used at all campus locations.

Sometimes things happen that are beyond our control.  If you’ve registered for classes but will be unable to attend Auburn during a particular semester, you’ll need to let us know.  Simply send an email to dining@auburn.edu sharing your name, 90# and an explanation that you will not be attending classes at Auburn.  We’ll watch your account, and when your withdrawal is approved and processed, unused dining funds will be refunded to your Student Financial Services (eBill) account.

With many dining locations throughout campus, you have convenient, fast and easy access to a variety of good foods. You may spend your dining dollars at any campus food truck, retail dining location, dining hall, The Hey Day Market, or even athletics concessions.

Whether you want to hang out at the dining hall or grab a quick sandwich as you’re sprinting between classes, we’re ready to serve you!

Occasionally, we encounter a student whose special circumstances warrant a dining plan accommodation: due to medical necessity, being away from campus, or religious restrictions that cannot be accommodated in our dining facilities.

After meeting and discussing your situation with our dietitian, you may request a dining plan accommodation:  either a dining plan reduction or a dining plan exemption, based on your particular circumstances.

Learn more about dining accommodations

You will need to complete the exemption application process by the 10th class day of each semester unless you have a newly-diagnosed medical condition.

Students who work internships often receive class credit for those internship rotations, and class credit automatically triggers a dining charge to your eBill account. If you’re far away from campus, there’s a simple, online process to have the charge removed, simply complete an acommodation application.

You will need to complete this process by the 10th class day of each semester to receive your accommodation.

As part of the Auburn Family, Tiger Dining works tirelessly to ensure everyone has a seat at the table.  On rare occasions, a student may have a dietary restriction we’re not able to completely accommodate.  For those rare situations, students may request a dining plan accommodation.

You will need to complete this process by the 10th class day of each semester to receive your exemption.
