Residence Hall Meal Plan
Elmhurst offers a variety of great food at reasonable prices for campus residents and non-residents alike. Whether you're at the dining hall, the E.C. Grille, or Seattle's Best Coffee Bar, you'll find fresh food prepared daily on the premises. Students who live on campus choose from three different meal plans, all flexible. Points not used at the end of term do not carry forward to future terms and are not refundable.

Commuters, Apartment & House residents
Commuters, as well as apartment & house residents, may put commuter meal points on their Jaypass in the Office of Student Accounts. Points on this plan may be used for meals on campus. Points carry forward to the next term. You may charge the transaction for the points to your student account as long as your account is in good standing. Any monies remaining at the end of the academic year will be refunded to the student account. Additionally, Elmhurst Terrace residents in College housing receive 150 dining points on their Jaypass, which are only usable in Chartwells' venues—the main dining hall, the E.C. Grill in the Roost and the coffee bar.
