Why Purchase a Meal Plan?

UTSC Meal Plans are not like your traditional campus board plans. Think of your Meal Plan as your very own campus debit card.

how does a meal plan work

Once you purchase a Meal Plan, your funds will be available on your TCard (Student ID Card). Every time you make a meal purchase, the cost of your meal is withdrawn from your Meal Plan account. If you do not make a meal purchase, no funds are withdrawn from your account. In addition, Students with a Meal Plan will save the 13% tax on all eligible meal purchases. The tax savings is automatically applied at the time of the meal purchase. The UTSC Meal Plan is accepted as a method of payment at all campus food merchants! You can eat whenever you want and spend as little or as much as you want! This is the flexibility of your UTSC Meal Plan!

With a Meal Plan, you can take advantage of numerous benefits, such as:

13% tax savings on a all meal purchases, only for Meal Plan users. Eat healthy, regular meals, without having to worry about cooking between classes. You eat and study, we cook and clean. No need to carry cash on campus. Access your meal plan simply by swiping you TCard. Any left over Meal Plan funds can be refunded or transferred to TBucks. TBucks only expire after two years of inactivity.

TBucks is the only way to pay for services such as printing, photocopying & laundry; as such, all of our meal plan packages include some TBucks to help you get started! To learn more about TBucks, please visit the TCard+ website.
