<p>I’m going to quote VTECaddict on this:

@VTECaddict

MEAL PLANS
-11 cub, 14 Blue, 14 Premier, 19 Gold, 19 Premier
-meal periods: 7a-11a, 11a-5p, 5p-10p, 10p-12a, 12a-2a.
-14P and 19P gives you all your meals for the quarter and lets you swipe multiple times per dining period (so you can swipe friends in to the dining halls or get a sandwich and a smoothie at bruin cafe, etc)
-11C, 14B, 19G gives you swipes for the week (11 or 14 or 19). you can swipe once per meal period only.
-most people have 14P or 14B. if anticipate going home every weekend, think about 11C or 14P. if you plan on being here all the time or mostly all the time, 14B will be best and cheapest, though you can upgrade to 14P if you want more flexibility. if you are a true morning person and will wake up for breakfast every day even if you have like 10, 11, 12 o’clock classes, then get 19G/19P. i’d recommend 19P if you’re thinking about getting 19 meals, because it will be easier to use ones that you miss (and you’ll probably miss a lot)…

<p>The most popular plan is 14B - and I got that for my first 2 years at UCLA before. I’m not a morning person, and I usually wake up around 10-11 AM, so I usually skip breakfast. So 14 meals for a week (2 meals per day, 7 days a week) were enough for me. But you can always upgrade it if the meals aren’t enough.</p>

<p>can you ‘downgrade’ too?</p>

[VTECaddict]

<p>you can upgrade for free. downgrading costs money.</p>

[Fasttrack]

<p>Yea you can downgrade, but I think there is a deadline for that (usually the 1st week of every quarter).</p>

[sapphire_ocean]

<p>hmm ok then i guess i’ll get 14p then if i am the fatty i think i am, i’ll get the 19…thanks guys</p>

[zzzboy]

<p>are you going to go home some weekends? do you eat out a lot?</p>

[Bmop]

<p>Just go for the 19 premium. Who cares if you gain a little weight. I like big butts, I cannot lie.</p>

<p>And how does it work when you swipe your friends in if you have the premium plan? Do they take one of your meals, or is it just part of the plan that you get a few extra meals for friends? What keeps someone from swiping in their entire dorm room? I’m not exactly sure how that works.</p>

[zzzboy]

<p>swiping for a friend just takes another meal swipe. with 19 P you have 19 meals times however many weeks for a whole quarter. you can use them up as fast or as slow as you want, and you can swipe as many people as you want.</p>

[sapphire_ocean]

<p>^zzzboy i am not going home on the weekends, i live like 2 and half hours away, plus i dont have a license…so i am only coming home for breaks…so is 19 better then?</p>

[zzzboy]

<p>sure why not. 19 reg or P.</p>

[sapphire_ocean]

<p>^coolness thanks, what meal plan do you have, and do you go home for weekends?</p>

[zzzboy]

<p>i have 14p, i go home more than half the weekends, and i eat out around 3-5 times a week. i have around 30-40 swipes left every quarter.</p>

<p>im getting 11 next year.</p>

[sapphire_ocean]

<p>oh wow, thats a lot of food left over…haha well thanks for the insight</p>
