Dining, Vending, and Food Delivery

Dining Services

All students living on and off campus are required to participate in a meal plan at some level. New students will select a meal plan as part of the housing and dining application through the . Upperclass students will select a meal plan as part of the housing lottery process. You can use the Housing and Meal Plan Research Tool to find a meal plan that works best for you.

If you do not complete the online dining registration or return a dining contract, you will be enrolled in the appropriate minimum plan requirement, and you may be assessed a late registration fee. If you request a plan that does not meet the minimum requirement for your residential group, you will be assigned to the required minimum plan.

We encourage financial aid recipients who have questions regarding how the cost of their meal plan and housing impact their financial aid eligibility to connect with their financial aid counselor.

Food Delivery

Outside of your hall there is a blue sign indicating the street address of that hall which you can use for direct food delivery (i.e. Grubhub, Door Dash, etc.) that may help your driver find your hall. We recommend you toggle off contactless delivery and give clear delivery instructions for the driver.
