About this plan

The 11 Premier plan offers the same 11 swipes per week as 11 Regular, but unused swipes carry over to the following weeks within the quarter. A slow week doesn't waste meals — banked swipes can be used later in the quarter. Premier also lets you use more than one swipe in a single meal period, which is how you bring a guest or go back for premium items; Regular allows only one entry per meal period. Best for students with irregular schedules who want flexibility without paying for more weekly meals than they need.

At $190 per week across UCLA's 33-week academic year, the 11 Premier plan averages $2,086 per quarter when billed.

Best For
