Meal Equivalency

The Meal Equivalency Program makes it possible for students with meal plans to dine with their friends at Muleriders Café without spending additional funds. Students with the Silver, Gold, or Platinum Meal Plan may use one Meal Equivalency swipe per meal period at the Mulerider Café. The Meal Equivalency has a set $9.00 value for breakfast, lunch, and dinner that allows students to cover a portion or all of their meal using that value! Lean more on our Meal Equivalency page.
