Dining on campus isn’t one size fits all. Our meal plans were designed with you in mind. If you are looking to enjoy a meal with friends or just a snack on the go – we’ve got a plan to fit every appetite.

We’ve kept what’s most important to you in mind, building in the convenience, flexibility, quality, value and healthy options you deserve. Explore our meal plan options to learn more about what would be the best fit for you.


  • Do I need to buy a meal plan?
    You are on Campus MORE than you are off Campus- you will use a meal plan. It’s convenient, and it is less expensive in the long run. If you live in Longwood Managed Housing you are required to purchase a meal plan. Commuters are highly encouraged, but not required, to purchase a meal plan.

  • Will my meal plan auto renew for next semester? 
    If you live in Longwood Managed Housing, yes your meal plan will auto renew for the Spring semester. If you are a commuter you will need to sign up for a meal plan each semester.

  • Will unused Meal Swipes or Bonus Dollars roll over? 
    Meal Swipes will not roll over to the next semester. Bonus Dollars will transfer from Fall to Spring if a meal plan is purchased both  semesters, but it will not roll over from Spring to Fall. Any unused Bonus Dollars will expire at the end of the Spring semester.

  • If I have already purchased a meal plan, can I change it?
    Yes! You have until the add/drop date to make any changes to your meal plan. Fall 18- August 27, Spring 19- January 23.
Don’t worry - simplicity and convenience are all within reach. Once you have a meal plan, your student ID works like a debit card. Just swipe your card and the meals and points are deducted from your meal plan account.
