Residence

Costs & Fees

No bills. No worries.

Staying in residence is a bit like staying at an all-inclusive resort. Your accommodation, WiFi, heat, water, electricity and, for those in a traditional residence, meals are paid for upfront, so you don't have to worry about bills while you're here.

Meal Plan Changes for 2024/25

We are excited to announce changes to our residence meal plans for the upcoming academic year. After careful consideration, we have decided to discontinue the 10 meal, 14 meal, and 19 meal options and, instead, exclusively offer the Freedom Plan. We believe that by focusing solely on the Freedom Plan, we can provide you with a more flexible and enjoyable dining experience.

Please note: that for students assigned to LeMarchant Place, there will be two additional meal plan choices available: a 155 meal block plan and a 217 meal block plan.

This adjustment allows us to streamline our offerings and concentrate on providing you with a variety of exciting meals and enhanced service options. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to improve your overall residence and dining hall experience.

  • Non-Traditional residences do not include a meal plan, but one can be purchased through 果酱视频 Food Services. See Food & Dining to learn more.

  • Food Bucks are funds included with your Meal Plan (see above) to provide you with more dining options. The amount of Food Bucks you have access to varies depending on your Meal Plan. Food Bucks can be used to pay for food and non-alcoholic beverages at select food vendors where DalCard is accepted. There are several accounts on your DalCard. Whenever you use your DalCard at a participating food vendor, the funds will be withdrawn from your Food Bucks account first, and then from your general Dal Dollars account, if additional funds are needed. Learn more about your DalCard accounts.
Effective September 1, 2009, 果酱视频 no longer accepts credit cards for payment of tuition and residence fees. All other payment options remain unchanged and credit cards can still be used for most other university expenses such as application fees, deposits, as well as purchases at the University Bookstores and Dalplex. The University recognizes that this change may present an inconvenience to students. Should you find yourself facing an unexpected financial challenge as a result of this change or have questions about your account, please contact Student Accounts at (902) 494-3998 or email student.accounts@dal.ca.
