Plaid Plan Information & Contract
All first-year students are required to be on a meal plan. In addition to the traditional dining plan, students also enjoy the late night dining program that allows you to eat at participating dining services locations until 2 a.m. any night of the week. Meal plans are conveniently encoded on your Carnegie Mellon ID+ card.
Our dining program offers you a choice of meal plans comprising value meals and DineXtra.
There are three levels of comprehensive meal plans - Green, Blue and Red. Within each meal plan, you receive greater value with the more meals you select. All first-year students must pick, at a minimum, from the Red Plans. The first year student dining contract is an online form that is submitted with the Housing application and Housing License Agreement through the New Student Welcome icon located at http://www.cmu.edu/housing/.
