About Our Dining Plans
Students often have demanding class schedules and the challenge of balancing classwork with internships, part-time jobs, extracurriculars, and so much more. With a Columbia Dining Plan, you'll have delicious and healthy options, even when you're on the run.
Although plans are not required, they're a great value. What could be better than a hot meal served just the way you like, right when you need it? (Answer: not having to do any dishes! We'll do that for you, too.)
Take the guesswork and planning out of your meals by signing up for a Dining Plan.
What's New for AY 24-25
EZ Plans have been simplified into two options:
- EZ 18 offers the highest number of weekly meals plus Flex.
- EZ 350 offers the highest number of meals, but as the plan is term-based, students have more flexibility about when they can use their meals. This plan also has a larger Flex supplement.
