Does FPU Dining have an app?
We do! Download Everyday today to place a mobile order from the Raven's Nest or Library Cafe. You can also use the app to view your meal swipe and FPU card balances, deposit money to your Dining Points or Raven Dollars.
Do I need to purchase a meal plan?
It's a great value and it is Franklin Pierce University's policy that all students residing in a traditional residence hall purchase a meal plan each semester.
What is All Access?
All Access means you have no limit to the number of times that you can come into the Marketplace Cafe. Come for a coffee before class, come back after class for breakfast, and stop in between meals for an ice cream… no problem!
Where can I use my meal swipes?
Meal swipes are traditionally used at the Marketplace Cafe (dining hall) in exchange for an All-You-Care-to-Eat meal. Additionally, meal swipes can be used for our Meal Exchange events that we host throughout the semester.
Do I need dining dollars if I have an All Access Plan?
Dining Dollars are like a debit account right on your ID card. Your All Access plan will allow you to eat as much as you want in the Marketplace Cafe, but we understand that you might get hungry after hours or want a beverage or snacks for your room. This is where your Dining Dollars come in handy! You can use your Dining Dollars to purchase food and beverages in the Library Cafe (coffee, pastries, smoothies, etc.) or for late night snacks in the Raven's Nest!
Can I change my meal plan if it does not fit my needs?
Yes! Changing to a bigger or smaller meal plan can be done during Add/Drop at the beginning of each semester. Changing to a larger plan is possible at any time during the semester.
If I'm not a Residence Hall Student, where do I buy my meal plan?
If you live off-campus, you can purchase a traditional meal plan through Student Financial Services. Our Block Meal Plans offer a lot of flexibility for off-campus students, though you may also enjoy the convenience of the All Access or 15 Meal/week Plans as that will minimize the time you must spend grocery shopping, cooking and cleaning up!
Do block meals carry over from semester to semester?
Block meals may be used during the semester in which they are purchased. They do not carry over from semester to semester.
Can I bring a guest?
All meal plans come with 4 guest meal passes per semester. You can also use Dining Dollars to purchase a guest meal.
What are Dining Dollars?
Dining Dollars are cash values included with all meal plans. The amount included with each meal plan varies. They work like a pre-paid debit card. The funds are spent using your student ID card. Dining Dollars may be used at any on-campus dining location.
Do Dining Dollars carry over from year to year?
Balances are carried over from the fall to the spring when a new meal plan is purchased in the spring. Balances are not carried over from academic year to academic year.
How can I add on more Dining Dollars?
Please contact Student Financial Services at 877.372.7347. Or if you download our Everyday app, you can add to your Dining Dollars or Raven Points.
What are Raven Dollars?
Raven Dollars are deposited into a pre-paid account available on your campus ID. Raven Dollars may be used at the bookstore and dining locations on campus. Raven Dollars do not expire and may remain on your campus ID throughout your academic years. For more information, please contact Student Financial Services at 877.372.7347.
