Students eating together.

Whether you plan to eat in the dining centers often or just once in a while, there's a plan for just about every preference.

When you're busy, flexibility is key. With your meal plan, you can eat at any of Syracuse's two food courts, five residential dining centers and 14 campus cafes. Residential dining centers are “all you care to eat” with one meal plan swipe, and each plan comes with guest meals for when you have visitors or if you just want to treat a friend.

Meal Plan Eligibility

As stated in the Terms and Conditions of Student Housing, a meal plan is required for all students living in on-campus residence halls. Various meal plans are available based on earned credits/class standing. If you are a first- or second-year student living in North Campus residence halls, you are required to have an unlimited meal plan, regardless of your preference.


Meal Plan Dining Dollars

All meal plans come with an established amount of Meal Plan Dining Dollars. This versatile payment method can be used at various locations on campus, including residential dining centers and campus cafes.
