University Residence Halls Food Service offers a wide selection of food choices, multiple dining locations, and long serving hours. After contributing a required food service membership fee, students can decide how much or how little to spend for food purchases in residence hall dining facilities. Students select and pay for only what they want by using the student ID to spend funds they have deposited into a debit card account called the Choice Account.
Most freshmen choose to live in university residence halls.
Students looking for an avenue of immediate involvement as well as quality academic and social support while attending the UW-Madison are encouraged to live in the residence halls. Housing Living Options Numerous living environments are offered to meet the diverse interests of residents. A house can be one, two or three floors in a particular hall, or one of several small buildings forming a group. Some of the houses accommodate only men or women.
