<p>My son (a Freshman who I would say is an average eater in terms of amounts of food) had gone with Tier 2 Plan C: 125 Passes with $600 Dining Dollars $1,865 this year. He ran out of dining dollars and just barely used up all his swipes. There are so many options to eat outside the dining halls and remember a swipe is about $10… So if you just want a light meal, it doesn’t make sense to use a swipe, but instead use dining dollars at another place. My DS LOVES CHIPOLTLE (his only really bad habit) 
so he went there once a week.
Next year he’s going with Plan D: 100 Passes with $785 Dining Dollars $1,865…remember you can add dining dollars if you need them, but you can’t reduce the number of passes if you don’t use them.
Hope this helps!</p>
