Meal Plans

LMU Dining Services designs meal plans to meet a variety of different dining needs. Whether you're on the go and in the need of a quick snack, or in the mood to sit down, relax and enjoy a full meal, we have just what you're looking for. Our LION Plans offer four different pre-paid Lion Dollar options, all using declining balance accounts.

Lion Dollars are conveniently accessed by your LMU OneCard (Student ID). They can be used for all food purchases on campus and for Room Service Delivery. Lion Dollars may also be used for your friends and guests when they visit.

All students living in University non-apartment residences are required to purchase one of the following four,  non-refundable

LION Dollars 2009 - 2010 plans:

Commuters & Apartment Residents

Commuter students and apartment residents may purchase any of the LION Dollars plans or open an S Dollar account. These non-refundable meal plan accounts are part of a California sales tax exempt program. Therefore you save 8.25% on each LIONS Dollar Purchase.

The LION dollars may be used throughout the academic year and summer until July 31st. Any remaining balance will be forfeited, except a maximum of 5% of the original plan purchase will be carried forward

from one year to the next.

"Which plan to purchase?" is one of the most frequently asked questions. Plan L is for the student who will not miss any meals and who will be on campus most weekends. Plan I is for the hearty eater who may not be on campus during the weekend.

For light eaters, Plan O or N will typically suffice.
