The University of Florida (UF) Food Plan is a comprehensive program designed to provide students with a convenient and affordable way to purchase food on campus. The plan is managed by the University of Florida's Department of Housing and Residence Education, in partnership with the university's food service provider, Gator Dining. The UF Food Plan is available to all students, including those living on and off campus, and offers a range of options to suit different dietary needs and preferences.
Types of Meal Plans
The UF Food Plan offers several types of meal plans, including traditional meal plans, flexible meal plans, and voluntary meal plans. Traditional meal plans provide a set number of meals per week, while flexible meal plans offer a set amount of dining dollars that can be used to purchase food at any of the university’s dining locations. Voluntary meal plans are available to students who do not live on campus, but still want to take advantage of the convenience and affordability of the UF Food Plan.
Traditional Meal Plans
Traditional meal plans are available in several different options, including the 10-meal plan, the 14-meal plan, and the 19-meal plan. These plans provide a set number of meals per week, which can be used at any of the university’s dining locations. The cost of traditional meal plans varies depending on the number of meals per week, but all plans include a set amount of dining dollars that can be used to purchase additional food or snacks.
