2025–2026 Dining Plans

Our dining plans offer convenience, variety, and savings to enhance your campus experience. We provide options for resident students, commuters, faculty, and staff. Looking for a quick take-out option? We now offer one-time purchase reusable to-go containers. Resident meal plans also include Flex Dollars, which can be used at Devil’s Den, Starbucks, and the new Central Market coming soon to Willard-DiLoretto.

Central Eats has crafted specialty meal plans to meet your dining needs. Meal swipes provide access to our Memorial Hall and Hilltop dining locations. Flex Dollars can be used at our retail locations, including Devil’s Den, Starbucks, and Central Market. Blue Chip Dollars function as campus currency and can be used at any of our dining locations. To switch your meal plan or learn how to purchase one, visit your MyHousing portal through ResLife or email reslife@ccsu.edu.

All students living on campus are required to have a resident meal plan. First-year students must choose either the Blue Devil Essential or Blue Devil Essential Plus plan. Transfer students and upperclassmen may choose from any of the available resident meal plan options.
