Should I stick with bruin Premier 19 if I decide to eat a lot at UCLA? Or would off campus/student union be cheaper?



It really depends on the individual. If you want some numbers though…

Using 11 meals per week as the baseline:
14 ~ $1.85 per extra swipe, $190 total
19 ~ $1.20, $325
14P ~ $5.20, $530
19P ~ $2.65, $725
Other places ~ $5+, ???

Keep in mind that the per swipe cost goes up if you don’t actually use the swipes. You’re more likely to end up using them all if you have premier. You’re less likely to use them all if you end up eating away from the dorms anyway (and this costs you extra money too).

I think you can change between quarters, so if you don’t like your original choice it shouldn’t be too costly.
