Dining Services
 Zorn Dining Commons. Resident students are required to select one of two meal plans: a 19-meal plan or a 12-meal plan. Commuter students may also select a 5-meal plan (which can be used any five times during the week).
With a meal plan you can enjoy our all-you-care-to-eat concept in our state-of-the-art facility. Note that removing food for later consumption is prohibited.
A Flex option is available for each meal plan for both residential and commuter students. The Flex option allows students to use their ID card as a debit card for purchases at the Student Center Food Court.
Please note the following about Flex plans:
-
Initial deposit has the following restrictions: Un-used balances are nonrefundable, cannot be turned into cash, and roll over from fall to spring semester, but are not transferred or refunded at the end of the academic year.
- Unused additional deposits are refundable if the balance is over $5 and are transferable from semester to semester and year to year.
Students who live on campus choose their meal plan for the entire academic year. Commuter students or other students not required to be on a meal plan may contract their meal plan each semester, but cannot make changes to their plan after 30 days from the start of each semester.
A current Keene State College ID card must be presented at each meal in the Hoot ’n Scoot and the Night Owl Café or have a valid hand read at the Dining Commons to gain admittance. ID cards and meal plans are not transferable.
The Dining Commons serves meals to students on the meal plan beginning with dinner on the day the Residence Halls open and ending with brunch on the day residence halls close. Meals are not provided during College recesses and vacation.
