Meal plan cost per semester: $1744
Pros
• As you do not spend time cooking, it gives you more time to study, sleep and sleep more.
• You can avoid the hassle of doing dishes.
• You can easily spend time with friends who also have meal plans.
• You can minimize frivolous spending on meals off campus.
• The central location of the Trojan Center within the campus means less driving.
• Moe’s.
• When you crave a Twix bar and some Ben & Jerry’s at 11 PM, Herb’s Place can be a blessing.
Cons
• The odd operating hours of the dining hall and the food court services may leave you hungry sometimes.
• You may get tired of the limited options and the repetition of food at the dining hall.
• If you are the kind who prefers cooking to pre-paid meals, a meal plan might be a costlier option.
• Constantly resorting to campus fast-food may get you that Freshman 15 you want to avoid.
• Running out of flex points before the end of the semester is a constant fear.
