Meal Plans
Sodexo is pleased to present great meal plan options for our students. Each meal plan offers a variety of meal options satisfying varied dietary requirements, personal tastes and individual schedules. Whichever one you choose, you know you're getting excellent meals at a terrific value.
All resident students must choose one of these plans. For students not living in college housing, any of the four plans are offered on a voluntary basis. Resident students have until the end of "Add/Drop" to reduce their meal plan. Students can reduce their meal plan before the end of "Add/Drop" at Student Financial Services, located on the 3rd floor of Hollister.
Babson College in collaboration with our partners in Dining Services make every effort to accomodate both medical and religous dietary restrictions. Please go to www.babsondining.com and then click on the PLANS tab to view all of the ways that the Babson Dining Plan can meet your dietary needs.

Meal Plan Exemptions
[Effective as of 2009-10 academic year]
As per the Undergraduate Housing License and Meal Plan agreement each student signs, and for reasons of public health and personal wellness, the meal plan is required of all students who live in a residence hall. Returning students have the option to “opt out” of the college meal plan only if they are living in a housing unit that has a full kitchen in their individual living space. A full kitchen is defined as having a full size refrigerator, stovetop and oven. These spaces are available through the College’s housing lottery system. First year students are not eligible to reside in these qualifying spaces and must be on a meal plan. Any residential spaces with common area kitchens or kitchenettes (stovetop only) do not qualify. There are no other exceptions to this policy.
