Frequently Asked Questions WHAT HAPPENS TO UNUSED MEAL SWIPES AND FLEX DOLLARS? At the end of the Fall semester, any swipes or Flex Dollars you haven’t used will roll over into the Spring semester, unless you downgrade or cancel. Swipes and Flex Dollars do not roll over between academic years from Spring to Fall and are nonrefundable. However, Flex Dollars you add (“Additional Flex Dollars”) can be credited to your SIS account with written request to dining@virginia.edu by May 12th, 2023.
CAN I CHANGE MY MEAL PLAN? You can upgrade your meal plan at any point in the year by visiting our website. Head to the “Meal Plans” section and click on the “Change My Meal Plan” page for more information about Meal Plan Changes.
HOW DO I PAY FOR MY MEAL PLAN? Your meal plan will be billed through SIS. If you have any questions about paying for your meal plan after you have been billed, please contact UVA Student Financial Services at sfs@virginia.edu.
CAN I USE MY FLEX DOLLARS TO BUY NON-FOOD ITEMS? No. Due to Virginia tax laws, Flex Dollars may be used only to purchase food and beverage items. For Flex Dollar delivery purchases through Papa John’s and Good Uncle, Flex Dollars may not be used for tips, sales taxes or delivery fees.
WHAT DO I DO IF I’M A VARSITY ATHLETE? All varsity athletes must sign up for an Athletics meal plan. The same base options for meal plans are available to athletes, but these include additional programming, menu items, and a extra dining location for varsity athletes only.
DO PARENTS EAT FOR FREE? Yes! With our Parents Eat Free program, all parents dine for free in any of our all-you-care-to-eat dining rooms with their student on a meal plan. The student must be present.
WHAT ARE THE DOOR RATES WITHOUT A MEAL PLAN? Breakfast - $9.50, Lunch - $11.50, Dinner - $12.00 (before tax).
HOW DO I CHECK MY BALANCE? Visit virginia.edu/cavalieradvantage and select “Access Your Account Online.” Select “Flex Dollars” and log in with your NetBadge credentials to view your balance. WHERE DOES COMPOSTABLE WASTE FROM THE DINING HALLS GO?
All waste discarded in the yellow bins gets picked up by Black Bear Composting, a composting facility located about 30 miles away from Grounds in Crimora, VA. The organic water is recycled and nutrients are returned to the land to build healthy soil and divert waste from the landfill.
