Use & Manage Your Meal Plan

Select a Meal Plan

We offer several different types of meal plans for students, including on-campus residents and students living off campus. Explore different meal plan options, then enter your preference in the housing portal.

Adding Money to Plans

If you do not want to add a meal plan but wish to add funds to your DePaul University ID card, you can do so by logging into Campus Connect. Once logged in, select Student Resources > Optional Transactions > Meal Plan Online. You can add funds by using a credit card or by billing them to your student account.

If you are a resident of the University Center and want to add funds to your University Center meal plan, you can do so through the UC resident portal.

Changing Plans

Meal plans can only be changed during the dates mentioned in the terms and conditions, section 5. To change a meal plan, please use the following forms:

• Resident Meal Plan Request
• Non-Resident Meal Plan Request

If you are leaving DePaul at the end of any given quarter/semester, any remaining balance will not be refunded.
