Meal plan and ONECard
The UVic ONECard is not only the official 番茄社区 identification card, it's also a meal plan card, food card, library card, recreation membership card and campus debit card!
Standard Meal Plan
Winter Session 2024-25
When you move into a dormitory bedroom (excluding apartments, Cluster rooms and pod-style housing), you are automatically placed on a mandatory Standard Meal Plan. This declining balance meal plan is added to your ONECard and has an allotment of money that you can use to purchase food and beverages in University Food Services dining outlets.
- Meal plans are required for students living in dormitories.
- Students in Cluster rooms, Pod-style housing or apartments can purchase a tax-exempt plan at any time.
- Parents and students can add dollars to any residence meal plan through a variety of convenient options.
In additon to the Standard Meal Plan, students can opt for the Ultra Meal Plan, ideal for athletes and those with larger appetites. Both plans offer diverse dining options with over 15 cuisines at University Food Services locations, ensuring numerous choices to enhance the on-campus dining experience.
Visit the Food Services website for details on meal plan options available from September through April, including where and how to use your ONECard.
Although Residence Services collects fees for mandatory meal plans, University Food Services manages all meal plans and adjustments.
Summer 2024
When you move into a dormitory bedroom (excluding apartments, Cluster rooms and pod-style housing), you are automatically placed on a mandatory Summer Meal Plan.
