Eating on campus is about more than just great food. Meal times are the time to relax, refuel, hang-out with friends, have fun, or make new friends. Our program has been built based on feedback from students just like you! Enjoy the many themed meals and promotions planned throughout the year. If you don’t see what you want, simply let us know. With a Standing Reservation, you’ll always be able to eat what you want, when you want, how you want!

Standing Reservations
All resident students are required to purchase a Standing Reservation plan to be used at the all you care to eat La Posada. This gives you a standing reservation to dine any time you want when the restaurant is open. Eat as many meals as you wish, full meals or snacks anytime of the day. Just present your Lobo card to the host/hostess.

Dining Dollars are similar to a debit account. Each time you make a purchase with your Lobo card using Dining Dollars, the amount is automatically deducted from your account. Dining Dollars roll over from the fall semester to the spring semester, but not from one academic year to the next.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I change my Reservation once the semester has begun?
Yes! Because Dining Services realizes that your schedule may change at the beginning of the semester, you have the option of changing your meal Reservation ONE time during the first two weeks of each semester. After the second week, you may not change the Reservation.

What if I run out of meals?
Don't worry! If you run out of meals you may purchase a Commuter Plan. Commuter Plans roll over from the fall to spring, but expire at the end of the spring semester.
