What is a Meal Plan?
A Meal Plan unlocks delicious meals, coffee, snacks, and more across campus. Your Meal Plan includes Meal Swipes and Dining Dollars or Flex Dining Dollars, conveniently loaded onto your Braves Card. No need to carry additional cards or cash!
Meal Swipes
Meal Swipes give you access to our all-you-care-to-eat dining hall! Come in for pizza, salads, fresh cooked meals, desserts, and more!
Dining Dollars
Dining Dollars can be used at any Braves Dining location. Unused Dining Dollars never expire until a student leaves UNCP.
Flex Dollars
Flex Dollars can be used at any Braves Dining location. Unused Flex Dollars roll over from Fall to Spring semester and expire at the end of the Spring semester.
Meal Exchange
Meal Exchanges are pre-set combo meals offered at most retail locations, including Papa John’s and Einstein Bros Bagels
Guest Meals
Guest meals are additional meal swipes that are included with all plans. Guest meals can be used by the student for a guest or for themselves, for access to the all-you-care-to-eat dining hall. Plans include 10 guest swipes per semester. Guest meals do not roll over from semester to semester.
