<p>Does anyone know how the meal plans work at UA? Is it that you get a certain amount of meals, or do you get a certain amount of $…and buy each individual item at a dining hall seperately.</p>
<p>Also, what’s UA’s reputation for food? Good? OK? Bad?</p>
<p>The meal plan is you buy a doughnut you pay for a doughnut. It doesn't count as a meal. There are 3 plans each gives a bigger discount and each is that your food is tax free. </p>
<p>The main union has a pizza place, chinese, MacDonalds, and many more. There is also mexican, all-you-can-eat and 3 noodles is another food place. Kinda like the mall.</p>
<p>My daughter wishes that there were more healthy choices. Food is OK. </p>
<p>$1800 plan if I remember correctly is a 5% discount on everything you buy. You can upgrade plans but you can't down grade. They tell you girls are good with 1800, boys 2200 and athletes 2700 is a good starter for them. There has been talk about a mandatory meal plan for Freshman, but the students have fought it. They are the only PAC-10 school that doesn't have one.</p>
<p>Money doesn't carry over from yr to yr. So go to the u mart and buy cans of food to zero out your meal plan at the end of the year!</p>
