The Associated Student Government, in partnership with the Division of Student Affairs, is proud to announce the launch of the Meal Swipe Request Form, an initiative designed to support students experiencing food insecurity. This program provides eligible students with extra meal swipes at no cost, ensuring access to nutritious meals on campus.

Students in need can access the Meal Swipe Request Form through ASG HogSync or directly via this link. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis each week, and once approved, meal swipes will be added to students' accounts. These swipes can be used at any campus dining hall by simply swiping a student ID.

This initiative is available until the end of the semester or when all swipes have been allocated, and students are allowed to apply once per semester. ASG encourages all students to spread the word about this resource to help ensure that those in need are aware of the support available to them.

"We recognize that food insecurity can be a significant challenge for students, and we want to do everything we can to support them," said Mason Berres, ASG president. "This initiative is a step toward making sure every student has access to meals and can focus on their education without the added stress of where their next meal will come from."

Students can learn more about meal swipes at dineoncampus.com/razorbacks/tell-me-more-about-meal-swipes. For any questions or additional information, please contact ASG Director of Dining Services at manasp@uark.edu.
