Resident Student Board Policy
Students living in the residence halls are required to participate in a College meal plan. Students may change their meal plan only during the “drop/add” period at the beginning of each semester. Students with special dietary needs are able to work directly with the food service staff in preparation of an alternative diet. The College’s health services staff may also be available to assist in this regard.
Requests to be removed from the College meal plan requirement entirely, or for authorization to downgrade to a smaller meal plan, are considered on a semester basis only when extraordinary and compelling circumstances clearly warrant it. The Associate Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students, or his/her designee, handles all meal plan downgrade/exemption requests after receiving appropriate documentation. If the downgrade/exemption request is due to a medical condition or specific dietary need, applicable documentation from the student’s medical doctor must be submitted.
Any downgrade or exemption from the College meal plan requirement may result in a change to the student’s financial aid package and specifically Keuka Grant aid.
