Meal Plans
The Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary Meal Plans are perfect for any student or faculty/staff member. These meal plans offer a fixed number of Garrett Points per semester.

Garrett Points can also be used at these authorized retail dining locations: Willie's Food Court and Willie's Too in the Norris Center, Cafe a la Cart, Crowe Cafe, Einstein Bros. Bagels, Lisa's Cafe, Plaza Cafe and Tech Express. You may also use your Garrett I.D. Card at the three convenience stores on campus. Excluded locations are the Allen Center and “Kafe Kellogg.” Garrett Points can be used 7 days a week. Check out our daily menus.
A full meal plan includes the following:
- 1,380 Garrett Points - $1,380/semester
1 Garrett Point = $1.00
Unused balances are not carried forward from semester to semester and are not transferable or refundable. To sign up for a meal plan, please visit the Business Office located in the Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary Main Building on the 1st floor.
Please note that the Garrett Card is not a “WildCARD”. This means that the Garrett Card will not be honored at retail vendors in the City of Evanston, nor will it work in campus copy machines or NU vending machines.
