Please review the Meal Plan Selector to choose the correct plan for your needs.

Dormitory Meal Plans allow food purchases to be made at on campus food outlets to be tax exempt. To make food purchases off campus, your Flex Food account will be used, however the food purchase will not be tax exempt.
For Non-food related purchases (such as photocopies, printing, taxi rides, Bookstore etc) you must add money on your Convenience Account. Meal Plans do not have an amount allocated to this account. You can add money to your Convenience Account at any time by visiting the OneCard office during regular business hours, through our Automatic Deposit Machines, (ADM’s) or by visiting the OneCard Website *Minimum Convenience deposit is $5.00
All purchases made with the Convenience account are subject to appropriate taxes including food purchases made on and off campus. Money in the Convenience account never expires, can be carried over from year to year and is fully refundable from May 15th to September 15th. Please request your refund through email (onecard@wlu.ca) and be sure to include your name and student ID number.
The OneCard cannot be used to purchase alcoholic beverages at any time.
The One Card can be used to pay for taxi service, but ONLY through the Convenience Account.
If an account holder has dietary concerns or other restrictions that make it difficult for the account holder to fully utilize the meal plan, then it is the account holder’s responsibility to contact the OneCard office as soon as possible. Failure to contact the OneCard office will be noted if any special consideration is requested later in the year regarding Meal Plan participation. Consultation will be arranged with Food Services Management and our consulting Dietician where deemed necessary.
Changes to meal plans are the sole responsibility of the account holder (student). For security purposes, the OneCard staff can only discuss or make changes to an account with the account holder in person. The consent form used by the Business Office does not apply to the OneCard Office or its services.
By agreement between
Account holders must abide by all other OneCard policies governing the use of the OneCard.
