A meal plan is required for all resident students at Norwich University. First-year students are required to be on the unlimited meal plan, while upperclassmen may choose between a 12, 15, or unlimited meal plan. Students select their meal plan during the housing selection process each year and costs of a meal plan are included in a student's comprehensive room and board fee. Upperclassmen looking to upgrade to the unlimited plan should visit the Norwich Dining Services office located outside the Wise Dining Hall.
All dining dollars carry over semester-to-semester, but expire at the close of the academic year.
