Campus Life

Awesome food. Period. There are so many options from deluxe design your own burgers to a allergy free and gluten free stations.

The food on-campus is actually pretty good- Miami has your typical college dining halls, but they also have restaurant-style places to get food. Your meal plan rolls over, so unless you eat a ton, you don't have to add all that much after your first semester. There's a couple market-style places where you can use your meal plan to buy groceries.
Food uptown is decent. There's plenty of cheap pizza places, which will become a staple of your new college-student diet. There's also lots of dessert! Be aware of which places will deliver and which won't- and be prepared to wait at least half an hour in line if you feel like getting Chipotle.

There are a ton of options on campus. Western Commons, located on Western Campus, is one of the top-35 dining halls in the country. Compared to most other schools, we eat like royalty.

miami has a lot of options for dining halls, there are a few buffets, a few "grab and go" locations, and even an on-campus grocery store. my only complaint is that there aren't enough healthy options other than the salad bars.
