1. Take Advantage of the Two-Week Plan Change Period
This is a big one, especially in freshman fall.
2. Switch It Up
For the first few months of freshman year, the FFC left very little to be desired, and its proximity to my dorm meant that my friends and I ate there for pretty much every meal. By November, I realized that I had barely spent any of my dining dollars, and despite the wide variety of options at the FFC, I was craving a bit of a change.
3. Use the JHU Mobile App to Keep Track of Meal Swipes
Until I discovered this trick, I tried each week (usually in vain) to keep track of how many meal swipes I had spent so far, often needlessly stressing that I would run out.
5. Budget Your Dining Dollars
From my experience last year, there are two types of people at Hopkins: those who spend all their dining dollars by March, and those who end the year with 200 extra and nothing to spend it on.

Charles Village, the Baltimore neighborhood in which Hopkins resides, has more than enough dining options for restaurants and grocery stores.
