Meal Plans

The best conversations start over good food.

A successful journey on campus includes gathering with classmates, co-workers and friends over a meal in the dining hall, food court or at one of our cafes along the way. There are several meal plans to choose from, each designed to meet the needs of our campus community.

Traditional Dorm

Meal plan options for students living in the traditional and suite-style residence halls.

This plan offers great value and flexibility for however you like to eat – three squares, many small meals throughout the day or to graze. Includes an unlimited number of meals in the dining halls, along with Dining Dollars and a couple of guest passes if you want to treat a friend to a meal!

Block 15, 120 and 220 Meal Plans

Do you like to eat in the dining hall, or are you more of a food court diner? The Block Plans provide options for both! The Block 15 Plan loads you up with Dining Dollars to be used for food and beverage purchases in our retail locations, while still allowing for about one meal per week in the dining hall. The Block 120 Plan provides over 7 meals per week in the dining halls and enough Dining Dollars to grab a few coffees each week in one of our retail stores. And the Block 220 gains you access to eat the majority of your meals in the dining halls while still enjoying the option to "eat out" with some Dining Dollars.

Weekly 5 Meal Plan

Get yourself five meals each week in the dining halls and then fill the rest of your schedule with delicious meals from one of our retail locations with your Dining Dollars. NOTE: The Weekly 5 resets each Thursday night; unused meals do not carry over to the next week.
