Meal Plan Rates

Enrolling in a meal plan means that a student will receive a meal plan for both fall and spring semesters (i.e., students who enroll in Meal Plan E will receive a Meal Plan E for the fall semester and automatically re-enrolled in another Meal Plan E for the spring semester). The deadline to reduce or cancel a meal plan is the University-wide Add/Drop deadline for each respective semester. Students may reduce or cancel their meal plan (if eligible) prior to this deadline per semester. Increases are welcome at any point in the academic year. All meal points expire at the end of the academic year.
