Meal Plans

When choosing a meal plan, think carefully about each selection available to you before making your decision. Consider your daily routine and ask yourself the following questions:

• For which meal plan am I eligible?
• Will I often miss breakfast because of morning classes or sleeping in?
• Will I sometimes miss dinner due to employment off campus, practice or evening classes?
• Will studying, extra curricular activities or my social schedule allow me time to eat only a certain number of meals each week / semester?
• Do I prefer the flexibility provided by Discretionary Dollars for my food purchases?

Anticipate the answers to these questions and others concerning your time spent on campus to select a meal plan that best suits your lifestyle.

Please note - All meal plans are selected and purchased through the Office of Resident Life as part of your Residence Hall, Apartment, Townhouse and Food Service Agreement. Any changes in meal plan eligibility requirements must be approved by Residence Life. Their office extension is 2148.

Using Your Meal Card

Your Bentley University ID Card can be your ticket to the many outlets on campus. With the purchase of a meal plan and/or Falcon Funds, simply present it when you visit for meals in Seasons Dining Hall. Each time, one meal/entry from your plan is subtracted from your balance. Any unused meals from your plan are not transferable. Please treat your Bentley Student ID (meal plan card) as a credit card. DO NOT lend it to anyone or borrow one from someone else. Fraudulent lending of your ID card will result in your ID being confiscated and sent to Residential Life for further action.
