2023-2024 Meal Plans

Meal plans are designed to provide maximum flexibility, value, and convenience. These meal plans include declining balance funds called Snack Money that can be used in resident dining rooms (i.e., all-you-care-to-eat) and at retail dining venues. To purchase a meal plan, login to your myHousing account at housing.hws.edu. Additional meal plan information and specifics can be found HERE.
