Which Dining Plan is right for me?
Which Dining Plan is right for me?
You should choose your dining plan based on your eating habits and where you think you will make most of your purchases. The average resident spends $6.94 per meal. If you're a light eater or someone who only snacks throughout the day, consider the lowest level plans – the Parkside Plan (for residents), and the Ultimate Saver (for commuters). If you prefer three meals a day and like your daily "snacks", you might consider a larger plan like the Parkside Plus (for residents) or the Premium Saver (for commuters).
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What if I have dietary and nutritional needs?
Dining Services will make every effort to accommodate special dietary and nutrition needs. Connect with the campus dietician for assistance (diningservice@uwp.edu).
2. What if I need plant based and gluten free foods?
Plant based and gluten free options are available daily across all dining service locations.
3. What is the Overhead cost in my dining plan?
The difference in the cost of the plan and amount of Dining Dollars on the Ranger Card are standard operating costs associated with offering an on-campus dining program including utilities, maintenance, and custodial services.
4. What if I have a remaining balance at the end of the semester?
Dining Dollar balances roll over from fall to spring only when you purchase a spring semester dining plan; balances at the end of spring semester will expire.
