MEAL PLANS
College life can be challenging, but dining should be effortless. That's why all students living on campus are required to participate in a meal plan.
Our meal plans were designed for every kind of student, and we’re here to help you make an informed decision. You’re in control! Whatever you choose, rest assured that quality is at the core of everything we do. With an ever-present focus on craftsmanship, our daily offerings will always be made-from-scratch. You’ll enjoy fresh, consciously sourced food with a focus on seasonal items, a wide variety of delicious and healthy meals, build-your-own meal concepts, and special options for every diet. We’re here to nourish, comfort, and excite through our food offerings every single day. We can’t wait to serve you!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
I am going to be off campus. How may I use my meals?
Utilize “On the Go!” in our retail locations or use our to-go container program in Baker Refectory.
What if I have a food allergy or dietary restriction?
If you have any dietary restriction, we encourage you to speak with a Parkhurst Dining Manager so we can review our menu with you personally.
