Meal Plans
We know life is demanding! Balancing classwork, jobs, hobbies, sports and a social life can be challenging. That’s why we believe in letting you choose a meal plan that best fits your busy lifestyle. We offer our residents in the Derby, Kramer, and Van Zile complexes three meal-plan options. Studying on the opposite side of campus from your residence hall? No problem. All of the meal plans provide you with the convenience to dine at any of our locations. Due to the size of the facility, please preregister at Van Zile if you are a Derby or Kramer complex resident.

On-Campus Meal Plans
We offer Residence Hall students three meal plans. Students wishing to change their meal plan may do so once during the first three (3) weeks of each semester by completing a meal change form at the Pittman building.
Guest/Bonus Meal Information
Guest/bonus passes are complimentary meals credited to residents’ meal accounts. Residents may use two (2) bonus meals immediately. The remaining guest/bonus meals for the 15 and 20-meal plans will be added to the account after the meal plan change date has passed. Unused passes will expire at the end of each semester, and cannot be carried over. Students who leave the residence hall before the end of the semester will forfeit any unused passes. Guest/bonus passes may be used by residents or their guest(s). Passes can be used at any meal except: Thanksgiving (November), Holiday (December), and Spring Dinner (April).
