Meal Plans - Frequently Asked Questions

Do unused meals carry over to the following week?
The Platinum and the Gold plan feature unlimited weekly meals, you will never run out of meals. Meals from the 11 meal plan, do not carry over from one week to the next. Meals from the 120 block plan do carry over from week to week throughout the semester; they do not carry over into the following semester. We can help you decide on the right plan to fit your schedule and eating habits, ensuring that you get the full value for your dollars.

Can I change my dining plan?
Absolutely. You have the opportunity to change your dining plan until drop/add day each semester. Simply go to the Residence Life Office located in North Hall and fill out a dining plan change form.

Can I treat a friend by using my Dining Membership?
