Meal Plan Info

Halifax

Traditional residences

Students in traditional residences (Gerard Hall, Howe Hall, Mini Res, Risley Hall, Shirreff Hall and LeMarchant Place) are required to have a meal plan.

Students select a meal plan option when they accept their room offer. In addition to the Freedom Plan, which offers unlimited meals, two block plans are available for residents of LeMarchant Place.

The meal plan is included in their residence fees so there is no need to purchase one separately.

If your student has any questions about meeting their dietary needs in our dining halls, please encourage them to reach out to our dietitian.

Non-traditional residences

For students living in non-traditional residences (Glengary Apartments and Grad House), a meal plan is not required. However, students have the option of purchasing an off-campus meal plan.

If you want to make a change to your meal plan, contact the Residence Office.
