Meal Plan Components

Student Meal Plans

UNCW Meal plans are convenient, flexible and loaded with options. They give you easy access to dining locations across campus with a range of hours. Learn more about how meal plans work for students.

Meal Plan Components
Meal Plans come with a range of options for students! There are four main components associated with student meal plans: Teal Meals, Food Dollars, All Access Meals/Dining Hall Meals, and Guest Meals. Read more about each component below!

Meal Plans

Teal Meals

Hawk Meal Plans and Block Plans use Teal Meals for a pre-determined combo meal at specific retail dining locations. See Where Can You Use Your Meal Plan for a list of locations where they may be used.

Dining Hall Meals

Block Plans use these meals at the Dining Halls: Wagoner Hall, The Shore Dining Hall, or Dub's Cafe. (Hawk plans use All Access Meals at these locations.)

Expiration

There is no time constraint with Teal Meals - use as many as you like! Hawk plans allot Teal Meals on a weekly basis and unused meals expire each week, while Block plans allot Teal Meals on a semester basis and meals expire at the end of the semester.

Food Dollars are a pre-paid declining balance account used exclusively at UNCW Dining locations, in addition to Food Trucks, Convenience Stores, Vending Machines, and Dub City Brew @ Barnes and Noble Cafe.

Expiration: Food Dollars expire each semester. However, unused Food Dollars are permitted to roll if you have a meal plan in the following semester. Rolling is permitted from summer to fall and fall to spring only. All unused Food Dollars expire at the end of the spring semester

All Access Meals in the Hawk Bronze, Hawk Silver and Hawk Gold plans provide the meal plan holder entry into Wagoner Dining Hall, The Shore Dining Hall, and Dub's Cafe.

Expiration: All Access Meals are for the meal plan holder only, and meals expire at the end of the semester.

Guest Meals are used for guests of the meal plan holder to dine at Wagoner Hall, The Shore Dining Hall, and Dub's Cafe.

The meal plan holder may also use Guest Meals for themselves.
