Campbell is committed to ensuring all students have access to good nutritious food.  Changes to meal plan requirements are a University decision and not specific to a particular department.

Effective 2025-26 academic year, all students residing in campus housing will be assigned a default meal plan.   All Access Plan is required for new transfer resident students, as well as, returning resident students classified as a freshman or sophomore at the conclusion of previous spring semester.  Block 125 is the default plan for all resident juniors and seniors. Resident students with a Block 125 default plan may opt-in to the all access.  Commuting student may purchase any available meal plan option.  Meal plan requirements are a University decision and not specific to a particular department.
