Student Dining Plan FAQs

All students living in WVU residence halls (not including WVU Apartments) 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 2025 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.

Note: Fall 2025 dining plan prices are subject to Board of Governors' approval.

Meal Swipe

A single transaction used to eat one meal at a residential dining location. Go plan meal swipes don’t roll over from week to week.

Dining Dollars

Non-taxable form of payment used to make purchases in place of meal swipes at any WVU Dining Services location. At the end of the fall semester, remaining Dining Dollars will roll over to the spring with purchase of a spring dining plan, but will expire at the end of the school year. You can add Dining Dollars to your existing Dining Plan by contacting WVU Dining Services.

Mountie Bounty

Taxable, pre-paid debit plan that can be used at any on-campus dining location, as well as off-campus locations such as CVS, IHOP, McDonalds, Panera Bread, Sheetz and more. You can load Mountie Bounty onto your WVU ID card by going to mymountaineercard.wvu.edu and paying with a credit card. Balances carry forward to the next semester, and refunds can be requested upon graduation. See where you can use your Mountaineer ID card and Mountie Bounty.
