Meal Plans
Your student meal plan allows you to add value to your TCard, and every time you make a purchase using your Student Meal Plan, your purchase comes off of your balance.
Deciding what student meal plan value that is right for you depends on your personal eating habits, your appetite, and the amount of time you will be spending on campus.


Basic & Flex dollars in student meal plan
Each Student Meal Plan includes two accounts: "Basic" funds and "Flex" fund
The terms “Basic” and “Flex” refer to the account your funds are coming from for the food you are purchasing:
“Basic” funds are the tax-exempt portion of your Student Meal Plan. Any purchase of a meal on campus (with the exception of meals from the Blind Duck, Chatime, Duck Stop, food trucks, and most vending machines) qualifies as a Basic purchase
“Flex” funds can be used to purchase all items that don't qualify as a Basic-eligible meal
You can use your Flex funds for:
Snack items
Beverages
Convenience items
Confectionary
Grocery items
Vending machines with card readers
The Blind Duck (in the Student Centre)
Chatime (in the Student Centre)
The Duck Stop (in the Student Centre)
Participating food trucks on campus
When you use “Basic” funds, you SAVE 13% on each purchase because they are tax exempt
Basic or Flex funds cannot be used to make purchases at the UTM Bookstore
