How Do Meal Plans Work at UNCG?

Meal plans are divided into two components at UNCG:

  • Meals – Standard meal swipes can always be used to enter Fountain View Restaurant. Spartan Meals will be used by participating locations for additional combo options. For more details on those locations and options, please visit Spartan Dining.
  • Flex – Flex is a non-refundable stored value account on your SpartanCard which allows you to eat at UNCG.
