What is a Meal Plan?
A Meal Plan unlocks delicious meals, coffee, snacks, and more, at 10 dining locations across campus. Your Meal Plan includes Meal Swipes and Camel Bucks, conveniently loaded onto your Camel Card. No need to carry additional cards or cash!
Meal Swipes
Meal Swipes give you access to Gaylord’s Kitchen, our all-you-care-to-eat dining hall, in the Student Union.
Camel Bucks
Camel Bucks may be used at any Campbell University Dining location. Visit our locations page for location information, including dining hall menus and hours of operation.
Sign up for Auto Camel Bucks Reload and have your balance automatically replenished with less stress! To get started ensure that your Camel Card is linked to your CampusDish Account and then sign up for Auto Camel Bucks Reload. You can pause or adjust your reload settings at any time.
**Please note that leftover Camel Bucks at the end of the semester do not roll over to the next semester!
