Students who commute to campus have needs as unique as the students themselves. But mostly, commuters are busy! This is why we offer a wide variety of dining plan options. The drive to and from campus often leads to dining during non-traditional hours. Time constraints can make it difficult to shop and cook at home. Our dining plans will fit any schedule and offer a variety of nutritious selections to keep you alert and satisfied. In addition to the numerous, freshly prepared selections, commuters can enjoy access to All-You-Care-To-Eat (AYCTE) dining. There is no better deal than AYCTE at Marsh Dining Commons or North Dining Commons, plus, all of your friends and classmates are there. Don't miss the opportunity to experience campus life during the best times of the day—breakfast, lunch, dinner and of course, late night!
 
All commuting students with fewer than 24 completed credits are required to purchase the Block 1 Plan which includes 42 meal swipes at the AYCTE Dining Commons locations, $100 Dining Dollars and $25 ClipperCash. Commuter students with 24 or more credits may opt out of this.

Commuting students are encouraged to enjoy our wide variety of menu options and dining plans at Salem State. The dining locations are where students gather to eat, play, study and relax, enjoying time together as a community. Commuters are eligible to purchase the unlimited access Anytime Dining 7 Day Plans or the block plans listed below.
