Residence Meal Plans
Term Meal Plans are the best value for your money, as you can save up to 13% every time you purchase a meal. The amount of time you spend on campus and your personal eating habits are important criteria in choosing the right plan. There are both two-term and one-term meal plan options.
If it is your first time living in residence, the two-term light meal plan is mandatory.
If you have been living in residence for more than a year you have the option to choose from any of our meal plan options to help save you money!
