Student Plans


All residential students are required to participate in a dining plan for the academic year.

First-year students are automatically enrolled in Dining Plan A for both their fall and spring semesters but may change to Dining Plan K to meet Kosher dietary needs. 

Dining plans are tax exempt and as such are non-transferrable. Students can sign up for a dining plan or add Dooley Dollars to their plans at any time throughout the academic year by going to the My Housing Web. 

If you have more questions about dining plans, please contact dining.


Residential Students

All students living in university housing (residence halls, apartments, sorority lodges and specialty housing) are required to enroll in a campus meal plan.  

Students may choose their fall dining plan beginning April 1 by logging into the MyHousing Portal. The dining plan selection process will be open and available through July 31. After that time, students who have not chosen a dining plan will be assigned the minimum plan available to them based on their class year and residential location.  

Select or verify your dining plan through the MyHousing Portal.
