Whether you're looking for three square meals a day, a nutritious
breakfast every morning, or occasional lunches, we've got a plan
for you.
Policies Concerning the Meal Plan:
- All University Housing residents must have a meal plan while living on campus.
- Incoming students (freshmen and transfers) that have electronically signed their University housing & food service contracts are automatically assigned the minimum required Weekly 13 meal plan.
- Returning students will automatically be assigned the same meal plan that they possessed in spring quarter of the previous school year.
Change your meal plan
- Students may only change their meal plans once every quarter.
- To change a meal plan, students must submit a completed “Meal Plan Request and Change Form” to the University Housing and Food Service Office by 5:00 PM on the following dates:
Fall – September 28, 2007
Winter – January 18, 2008
Spring – April 11, 2008
- When changing a meal plan, please note that there may be changes that occur in the billing of your meal plan when charges are prorated.
- Charges are prorated differently for each type of meal plan. For this reason, changing from one type of meal plan to another, despite the same quarterly/yearly price, may result in additional charges.
You may submit the Online Meal Plan Request and Change Form
by logging in with your NetID and password or download the PDF version ( PDF) and mail or fax it to us at the Food Service office.

How The Meal Plans Work:
- Meal plans begin at the beginning of each term when the dining halls open:
Fall – September 18, 2007
Winter – January 7, 2008
Spring – March 31, 2008
- All dining halls feature buffet-style and all-you-can-eat dining.
- Students may stay in a dining hall throughout an entire meal period. However, one may not leave and re-enter that or any other dining hall during the same meal period except under the Unlimited meal plan.
- What is a Meal? - A “meal” is designated by each time a student uses his/her wildcard to enter the dining hall.
- Students may also purchase a la carte items at designated retail locations using points. (Only students with Block Plans C & D may use their meals to purchase items at retail locations).
- There are five meal periods offered at Northwestern.
Breakfast and Lunch are offered Monday through Saturday.
Dinner is offered everyday.
Brunch is offered only on Sunday.
Late-Night is offered Monday through Thursday at Foster-Walker only.
Wildcat Points:
- Points are the price equivalent to $1.00.
- Points can be used to purchase items at any dining hall or retail location.
- Points may only be used in the quarter for which they are allocated.
- Unused balances are not carried forward from quarter to quarter and are not transferable or refundable.
