Dining Plans

Choose the dining plan that fits your schedule and lifestyle. Fall 2024 dining plans will be available for purchase on Friday, March 1 at mymountaineercard.wvu.edu.

All students living in WVU's residence halls are required to purchase a dining plan. This promotes a healthy lifestyle and social interaction. Studies show that students who eat and live on campus tend to be more academically successful, engaged and more likely to graduate.

Fall 2024 On-Campus Student Plans

On-campus student dining plans are annual contracts covering both fall and spring semesters. When you’re ready to purchase your plan, go to mymountaineercard.wvu.edu, select Purchase Dining Plan and follow the instructions.
Pricing is subject to WVU Board of Governors approval in June 2024.
