Dining Plans

Your Guide to WVU Dining Plans

WVU Hospitality Group offers three types of dining plans: plans for students living in WVU residence halls (residential plans), plans for students not living in WVU residence halls (non-residential plans), and plans for full-time faculty and staff. Students living in WVU residence halls are required to purchase either Go 10, Go 13, or Go Anytime plan.

Student dining plans can be purchased at https://myhousing.wvu.edu. Faculty and Staff dining plans can be requested via our form.

Each dining plan includes a specific number of meal swipes and/or Dining Dollars, which are loaded onto WVU ID cards for use. Mountie Bounty is a separate, optional form of campus currency that is also loaded onto ID cards, offering additional flexibility. Meal Plan balances such as swipes, dining dollars and Mountie Bounty can be checked at mymountaineercard.wvu.edu.

  • As a flexible bonus, students with the GO PLANS can use two of their existing meal swipes per week or up to $10.50 to purchase any item or combo meal at retail locations, except PANDA EXPRESS.

Dining Plan Withdrawal Policy

If a student officially withdraws from the University (drops all classes) and completes the required forms and procedures, the unused portion of their dining plan fees will be refunded in accordance with University guidelines. The “unused portion” will be determined based on the date the student stops using the dining plan.

If the student has an outstanding balance for tuition, fees, or other charges, any refundable portion of the dining plan fees will first be applied to that balance.

Dining plan fees are refundable according to the following schedule:

  • On or after October 15: No refund for fall term charges, no assessment of spring term charges.
  • On or after March 7: No refund for spring term charges.

This policy applies to all students who purchase a dining plan, including both on-campus and off-campus students.
