Honestly, it depends on where you eat. If you eat in the cafeteria it can be over $10 because you may be able to get several sides, dessert, etc. included on the meal plan. But if you get a smoothie, Quizno’s, The Pub, or one of the other places it may be $6-$8. So I think you may find it balances out financially with the 8 or 14. Major difference for me was the fact it is I felt it way more convenient to just swipe your student ID versus dealing with my debit/credit card or cash as well as the proximity factor. In addition, the meal plan fee was lumped into my college expenses and easy to pay with a loan. I think you will be fine whichever you choose, so don’t beat yourself up about it. I think you can change it second semester if you aren’t happy with what you selected.
