    There is a wide variety of food and dining options. The food is of good quality and a good value as well. Campus dining at UNCW is a great place for gathering with friends.

    Food on campus isn't going to compare to your family's home-cooked meals, but it also isn't terrible. There are a lot of different options when you have a meal plan. Outside of the main dining halls, there are a lot of really delicious places to get food, like Einstein's bagels and Chik-fil-a!

    You're always going to be able to get pizza, pasta, or a sandwich somewhere on campus. While the major dining halls have limited hours (closing at 9 and only one open on the weekend) there are convenience stores on campus where you can go for a meal if needed. Chickfila, Subway, Quiznos, and several coffee places are on campus. Wag breakfast is also something you'll hear a lot about!

    We have a lot of options here on campus for dining. I am a pescatarian (I eat seafood and vegetables) and I have always found something yummy to eat on campus. While you are here you'll find you might prefer one dining hall over another.

    The restaurants around the town are wonderful and campus dining is the most practical that I have experienced at a university.

    There are a lot of choices of where to eat on campus during the week and they are all delicious! You have food dollars and meal swipes which help keep track of how much you are eating. But, on the weekends, there is only one location where you can use meal swipes which is very annoying for people who do not live near it.

    Not too big of a Greek scene here...but there are fraternities and sororities. My roommate is in one and she loves it, I am not and I love it. Choose your poison.

    I believe that Greek Life inhibits you from becoming your own person and having your own experiences. I advise against it.

    Greek life is not like other Universities where they are enemies. Sororities and Fraternities spend time together and are very friendly to everyone.

    Greek life is a big part of UNCW. A lot of students join sororities or fraternities to meet great people and become involved.

    Even though it isn't a huge school, Greek Life plays a very big role on campus. That being said, there are also a large number of people who are not involved in Greek Life. It is something that if people are interested in it, they are sure to love it, but if not, there are plenty of other things to join!
