Eat Like A Denisonian

Denison University offers a variety of meal plans tailored to fit your busy schedule and tastes. Meal plans are convenient, flexible and loaded with options. They also give you easy access to dining restaurants all across campus with a range of hours as early as 7:00 am and late as 1:00 am when the fall semester starts.

First-year, sophomore/junior meal plans include a certain number of meal swipes to access The Tables at Curtis or Huffman. Unused Meal Swipes do not roll over and reset weekly on Sunday morning.

First-year, sophomore/junior meal plans also include a portion of the meal swipes that can be used as meal exchanges that provide meal options at Slayter Market, Slivy’s, DFuse or at The Nest. Unused Meal Exchange Swipes do not roll over and also reset weekly on Sunday morning.

Flex Dollars are declining balance that can be used at grab-and-go locations on campus, (such as Slayter Market, Slivy’s, and The Nest). Flex Dollars roll over from fall semester to spring semester, but do not roll over to a new academic year. So be sure to spend all your Flex Dollars by the end of spring semester. Also included in your meal plan are Big Red Bucks which can be used at over 20 different partnering restaurants in Granville.
