Meal plans are mandatory for students living in the dorm. Meal plan cost is separate from room cost. Meals are served in the dining hall located on the first floor of the Finney Building, located just a short walk away from Walker Hall.

Fresh Ideas provides food services for the College. Money for meals plans is placed on each resident’s Ranken ID.

You can choose from our three meal plan options:

• Option A:  $1,000 per-semester declining balance on student’s Ranken ID
• Option B:  $1,200 per-semester declining balance on student’s Ranken ID
• Option C:  $1,400 per-semester declining balance on student’s Ranken ID

To help you estimate your meal plan needs, the dining hall provides the following average costs, per meal:

• Breakfast: $5.00 – $7.00
• Lunch: $6.00 – $8.00
• Dinner: $8.00 – $15.00

These are average prices for “combo meals” including a drink. There are also many a la carte menu items available.
