Access When You Need It

You choose how many meals are right for you to dine with us during serving hours at Bolton, Snelling, Oglethorpe, the Village Summit, and the Niche. Whether you are looking for a large meal or a small snack, our All-Access meal plans allow you to come and go as you please, dining as much as you'd like. Our Commuter and Upper-Level Student plans give you a set number of meals to redeem at your convenience throughout the semester. View all of your meal plan options below!

 

Enjoy Savings

The All-Access meal plan saves you an estimated $12.61 - $18.22 per day when compared to the regular entry price for non-meal plan holders!* Our Commuter and Upper-Level Student plans offer additional flexibility at an affordable price. Plus, when you dine on the meal plan you don’t have to worry about paying tax or extra fees and Paw Points automatically save you 8% at retail dining locations.

Here's what others are saying about the UGA meal plan:

John Montoya

The variety of food is great and on any given day there are protein and vegetable options available. There are also some mainstay items that you can rely on that you know will always be there! I love the expanded options this semester.

—John Montoya, UGA '24

Ethan Dawidowicz

I have the 180 blocks plus 300 Paw Points which averages out to about 2 meals a day at the dining halls, but that is more than enough. With the addition of Paw Points, I’m offered a variety of restaurants I can enjoy!
