All students living on campus (paying room and board) will be able to enjoy unlimited access to Hoernemann Refectory, which will have new, extended hours (from 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. Monday - Friday and 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday).

Meal Plans

A meal plan gives you unlimited access to Hoernemann Refectory, the main dining hall on campus. This is covered by your board rate.

Berg Bucks & Flex Dollars

All meal plans now come with Berg Bucks! You just have to choose between $150, $250, or $350. If you run out of Berg Bucks, during the semester, you have the option to add Flex Dollars. Flex Dollars do not expire, they carry from one semester to another, and spend just like Berg Bucks. If you would like to add Flex Dollars, all you need is a credit card and visit our website, https://heidelbergdining.catertrax.com.

Just look for the Flex Dollars button, and follow the steps identified there. Berg Bucks can be used at any of our retail sites such as Berg Bistro 1850, giving you the flexibility to grab a quick snack or coffee, with money loaded to your student ID card. You can also pay with cash or credit card at any dining facility but having money right on your ID card is a nice option. Just remember, Berg Bucks expire each semester unlike Flex Dollars, so remember to check your balance to know how much you have left.

All students, need to indicate what meal plan option (or add-on if any) they would like on the housing application. To choose your meal plan options, log into OASIS and go to “My Housing” and select a meal plan. Prices and descriptions have been added to assist you. Due to the transition from Aramark to Parkhurst, meal plan selection is later than usual and we anticipate the process and options will change next year. Due to the transition from Aramark to Parkhurst, meal plan selection is later than usual and we anticipate the process and options will change next year.
