Dining Services offerings
Requirements
All individuals living in a residential college are required to purchase a meal plan. Upperclass students not living in a residential college may also purchase a meal plan. A meal plan allows you to eat in any residential college dining hall and at the Center for Jewish Life.
Meal Plan Contracts
Freshmen choose a meal plan and electronically sign their dining contract in the summer prior to their arrival to Princeton. Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors living in a residential college choose a meal plan and accept a meal plan contract for the following year during Room Draw. Juniors and Seniors not living in a residential college may select a meal plan at Room Draw or any time throughout the year at the Undergraduate Housing Office in MacMillan Building, making a selection and signing a contract.
Meal Plan Options
Freshmen and sophmores are required to purchase a meal plan and have several meal plan options, including block plans and the unlimited meal plan.
Upperclass students whether required to purchase a meal plan because of their residence in a residential college, or who purchase a meal plan because of the convenience, quality of food, and camaraderie a dining hall experience provides, have several meal plan options, including an unlimited meal plan and block plans. Block plans are a great way to create flexibility in your dining choices because of membership in an Eating Club, or if you prefer dining options in addition to the Residential College Dining Halls.
The Dining Service Website provides all the details.
