Meal Plans

Freshmen living on-campus are required to select a dining plan for both semesters of their first academic year. Freshmen are automatically assigned the UB Gold Plan, but may change to the Platinum, Silver or Bronze plan. To choose another plan, stop by the UB Card Office in the Commons on North Campus or in Harriman Hall on South Campus.

In our Residence Hall Dining Centers, we prepare breakfast Monday through Friday, brunch on the weekend and dinner every night of the week. You'll combine these meals with lunches and snacks you'll get from any number of great places on campus, using the Dining Dollars portion of your dining plan. Dining Dollars are tax free, so you save 8.75% when you purchase a quick breakfast on the way to class, buy dinners on the nights you choose not to eat in a Residence Hall, or buy a meal for a friend.

UB apartment residents and Commuters are eligible for all plans.

2008-2009 Meal Plan Information:

 All dining plans for the 2008-2009 automatically renew for the Spring 2009 semester for resident and commuter students unless changed in person at the UB Card office or online by January 2, 2009. If you have a meal plan for Spring, any unused Dining Dollars from the Fall semester will carry over. If you are not planning on having a meal plan for Spring, any Dining Dollars left over at the end of the Fall semester will be forfeited. Note: There are additional restrictions for Campus Cash if you do not have a meal plan and live in the Residence Halls. Check with the UB Card Office or refer to your Agreement.
