Dining Center Process
Your step-by-step guide to eating at the Dining Centers.
Follow the steps below to easily navigate to and through the dining center.
1. Check the Menu & Hours
- Wilkerson Dining Center is the primary dining center.
- Our team strives to have the most up-to-date hours available online. Check out the hours before arriving!
- Review the Menus on the Web to get an idea of what you want. You can save time and decide what to get before you even get to the Dining Center!
- In a hurry? Download and set up Grubhub for campus to get Made-To-Order food to be ready when you arrive at the Dining Center!
2. Choose Dine-in or Takeout
- Dine-in is the primary service option at the dining centers. If you would like to dine-in for all-you-care-to-eat, no additional information is needed when you scan your U Card in.
- Takeout: If you would like to take your food to go, you must tell the cashier at the check stand before you scan in that you would like to take your food to go. Please see the takeout policies and reminders for more information.
3. Scan In Using Your U Card
- Scan in to the dining center using your U Card. Students can get their U Card during orientation or by going to One-Stop Student Services before move-in.
- If you're not a meal plan holder, you can pay the per-meal price with U Cash, credit, or debit card. Cash is not accepted.
4. Select Your Food
- Each dining center features multiple food stations and options. Feel free to walk around to see all your options: homestyle comfort food, salads, sandwiches, pizza, noodles, burgers, and more! You can learn more about the food that we serve from our local partnerships in the region.
- We are a trayless facility. You can grab a plate and utensils at the beginning of a concept to serve the food yourself, or if we're serving food, a plate will be provided to you.
- Items at The Grille are made-to-order, with exclusive selections available only through Grubhub.
- Utensils and napkins are available in multiple places throughout the dining center.
- Cups are available by the beverages station.
5. Enjoy!
- You can sit wherever you would like in the dining center!
- If you dine at Wilkerson, don't forget to check out Wilkerson 202, which is a more private dining space by the dish return and bathrooms.
6. Return Dishes & Enjoy Your Day
- When you're done eating, bring your dishes, cups, and utensils to the dish return area by the entrance.
- Enjoy the rest of your day!
Takeout Policies and Reminders

- If you decide to take your food to go, you may not eat in the dining center first. You can either dine-in or take out, but not both.
- All food and drink must fit within the container limits listed above.
