Meal Plan Options
Maybe you never miss breakfast. Or, perhaps you're good with one big meal a day, or you're going to handle most of your cooking yourself. Whatever your appetite, select a meal plan through Campus Dining & Catering that satisfies your preferences and schedule. Students who do not reside in apartments are required to be on a full-service meal plan.
Block meals: Use these meals any time at RoBro or any participating campus location.
Board meals: Some plans include a weekly allowance of meals; use these at RoBro or any participating campus location. Your weekly counter resets every Saturday.
Declining balance (DB): Meal plans carry an allowance that can be used anywhere on campus. Your allowance is good throughout the entire academic year and can be re-loaded.
Students who do not reside in apartments are required to be on a full-service meal plan.
Unused Declining Balance or meals left on a student's account as of the last day of meal plan each May will not be refunded or rolled over to the upcoming Fall semester. *All refund policies are detailed in the student regulations for those who wish to review specific timelines and guidelines*

If you have special dining needs, let us know: we'll talk to you about your options and even introduce you to a dietitian who can develop a custom plan.
