Meal Plans/MAVmoney

Welcome to living and learning at Colorado Mesa University. For students living in non-apartment style hall, you will be required to participate in one of our resident meal plans.

Meal Transfers

You can use your Meal Plan Swipes as Meal Transfers at select locations across campus! Students on meal plan A may use two meal transfers per day, and students on meal plan B may use one meal transfer per day. You may not use a transfer if you have swiped in to the dining hall during that same meal period. Click here for campus dining locations:
