Flex is a lump sum built into each of the meal plans. Though not real money, Flex dollars may be used as a debit account for making additional food purchases at Boyd Dining Center, the Harbor Grill or the Coastal Market. Any balance left over in your Flex account will roll over from the fall to the spring semester. Unused balances at the end of the spring semester will not be refunded, so use your Flex dollars wisely!

Meal Equivalency is available at the Harbor Grill from 10:45am to 8:00pm. At lunch, between 10:45am and 4:45pm, students using a meal credit at Meal Equivalency have $3.50 to go towards a purchase at any of the stations in the Harbor Grill. At dinner, between 4:45pm and 8:00pm, students using a meal credit at Meal Equivalency have $3.75 to go towards a purchase at any of the stations in the Harbor Grill.

Marlin Dollars are used just like Flex Dollars and may be purchased in the Business Office. Purchases made with Marlin Dollars are subject to Virginia Sales Tax. Unused Marlin dollars will remain in your account
