Express Meal Plan for Heritage Commons & Off-Campus Students

Miami Express is the meal plan for students residing in Heritage Commons, living off campus, or attending one of our regional campuses. This meal plan is designed specifically to give students the flexibility of being able to cook at home or eat in one of our many dining locations.

Meal Plan Pricing

Each student has a different schedule and unique dining habits. That is why we offer a wide range of pricing options for the Miami Express Meal Plan. Once you select a price level, your bursar account will be charged that amount and then the funds will be added to your meal plan account, accessible via your Miami ID. This meal plan offers various levels to fit your needs.


Miami Express Benefits and Discounts

  • Convenient dining locations near classrooms and campus libraries
  • Many nutritious choices
  • Meal plan purchases are tax-exempt—save 6.5%
  • Save time with various grab-and-go selections
  • An easy to use declining meal plan balance

Sign Up For Your Express Plan

  • Off-Campus and Commuter students: If you'd like to select from pre-set amounts prior to the start of each semester, you can use the online housing system to sign up. Login and click the link for "Online Forms". From there, you will select "Off-Campus Student Meal Plan Sign-Up." 
  • Heritage Commons Residents: If you'd like to select from pre-set amounts prior to the start of each semester, you can go through your Housing Application to make your selection. Access your application by logging on to your Housing Account and clicking "Register for Housing" to access your application.
  • For Heritage Commons, Off-Campus and Commuters: To add dollars in increments of your choice at any time during the year, follow the instructions on the One Stop website.

Using Your Express Plan

The Miami Express Meal Plan works like a debit account; students have a balance that is accessed through their Miami ID card. Your meal plan is accepted at all Miami University dining locations. As you purchase beverages, meals and snacks throughout the semester your balance decreases. At the end of each year unspent meal plan dollars will automatically transfer to a Miami Express plan for the next year. Meal plan dollars are non-refundable.
