Meal Plan Exemption

There will be a new process for a Meal Plan Exemption or reduction for the 2025-25 school year starting July 1, 2025.  Medical documentation will be turned into the department of Disability Services as the first step.  More details will be on this page by July when requests will start being reviewed.

The only approved exemptions from a required meal plan is for Medical Reasons - One or more forms of documentation are required. Diagnosis: A letter on letterhead paper from a Medical Doctor (letters from chiropractors are not accepted) is required stating your medical diagnosis. In the event of food intolerance/allergies, the doctor must state specifically which food(s) you cannot consume and what are the allergy reaction(s).

This is for student residents who fall under a University requirement for retaining a meal plan and has a medical need for a meal plan reduction or a full exemption from the meal plan. The University requires all students that live in residence halls and on-campus housing to purchase a meal plan.  The policy also requires all first year Commuters and Transfer Students to retain a meal plan.
