First-year students are required to have a Dining Plan that includes 14 pre-paid, all-you- care-to-eat meals each week (Board Plan) plus Food Points (see sidebar on page 8) for a la carte meal purchases. The First-Year Dining Plan, known as Plan I, is designed to enhance the undergraduate experience. Centered around Marketplace, the main East Campus dining facility, the First-Year Dining Plan provides a wide range of choices and fosters a sense of community through dining together. The First-Year Dining Plan is divided into two parts: the Board Plan and Food Points. The Board Plan covers all breakfast, dinner and brunch meals and Food Points cover any other meal or snack. Students may add more points as necessary.
All incoming first-year students who live on East Campus will be automatically enrolled in dining plan I. All incoming first-year students who are assigned to live on West Campus will be automatically enrolled in Plan G.
