Great Food at a Reasonable Cost
Whether you live on campus or commute from home, you can choose from a variety of flexible dining plan options.
All on-campus dining venues feature fresh, healthy options and accommodations for dietary restrictions. Students who live in residence halls are required to participate in a dining plan. Commuters, campus apartment and house residents may opt in if they choose to.
