  • If you live in a VSU residence hall, you are required to purchase a meal plan (refer to your copy of the Housing & Residence Life contract).
  • Freshman meal plan options are Blazer All Access, Blazer Platinum, and Blazer Gold.  If you select a plan for which you are not eligible, it will be changed per VSU policy/eligibility requirements.
  • Fall 2023 meal plan change deadline is Wednesdayay, August 16th, at 11:59 PM.  No changes will be processed after the deadline.
  • Residential Students: If you do not select a meal plan when you register for classes, the default plan (Blazer Bronze for Centennial Hall and Blazer All Access for all other halls) will be automatically assigned to your account.

On-Campus Food Purchases with Dining Dollars and FLEX Funds

When making food purchases at any of the dining locations on-campus (including the two markets), please specify from which account you would like to pay.  Dining Dollars and FLEX are two separate accounts that are accessible via your VSU 1Card, and the payment process will be expedited if you inform the cashiers of your payment preference.  Debit/credit cards and cash are accepted at most locations as well.
