Whether you're looking for three square meals a day, a nutritious breakfast every morning or just occasional lunches, we've got a plan for you. Sodexho Food Service and Ripon College offers four types of meal plans. Each plan is unique and accommodates different appetites and eating patterns.

All student residents living on campus are required to have a meal plan. Of course, students living off campus are welcome to purchase any of our resident student meal plans, or just add a few meals and munch money, providing access to great food at a great price for the whole semester. Please contact the Sodexho Food Service office for details. Call 920-748-8138.  Or email us at foodservice@ripon.edu.

You may select one of our four plans that will fit your timetable and lifestyle:

• 110 Block Plan with $255 Munch Money
• 150 Block Plan with $155 Munch Money
• 180 Block Plan with $80 Munch Money
• 20-Meal-Per-Week Plan

The 20-Meal Plan offers a guaranteed 20 meals per week, starting from Friday - Thursday, with each Friday morning starting a new week with 20 meals.  Any meals that were remaining on Thursday night will be lost.  With this plan you can treat a friend to a meal, or get 2 grab & go meals, or do a double swipe on Friday and Saturday nights, just like the block plans.  Munch Money can be added to this plan by contacting the Food Service Office.  Munch Money can be added to this plan by contacting the Food Service Office.  Munch money can be used at the Pub, the Terrace, or the coffee shop for snacks and beverages outside of any meal periods.  This plan works for those who normally eat 3 meals a day.

The Block Plans are also flexible but differ in that you start with 180, 150, or 110 for the semester, and each has flex dollars already added to the individual plan.

The 180 starts with 80 flex dollars, the 150 starts with 155 flex dollars, and the 110 starts with

255 flex dollars.  There are 16 weeks in the semester and as each week passes the balance should decline giving you enough meals until the semester ends.  The 150 averages about 9 meals, the 110 averages about 6 meals, the 180 averages about 11 meals to use for the week in order to have enough meals for the entire semester.  Flex dollars can also be used at Pickard Commons for a meal (you pay a set price at the door and enjoy unlimited item selections) at the coffee shop or the Pub or the Terrace for fast food items and snacks between classes or late in the evening.

Changing Meal Plans
Changes can be made by submitting to the Food Service a new meal plan agreement card within the first two weeks of each semester.


Campus Red Hawk Cards
Access to dining areas requires presenting a valid Red Hawk card. Replacement cards can be obtained at the Sodexho Food Service Office. There is a $10 fee for lost or stolen card replacement. Your meal plan status and FLEX DOLLAR accounts are maintained through this non-transferable card.  The Red Hawk Card also allows access to the dorms.

• The cardholder is responsible for immediately reporting a lost or stolen Red Hawk Card to the Sodexho Food Service Office or at any of the food service locations.
• Account statements are available through the Sodexho Food Service Office by request.
• At the end of the first semester, the balance of any Flex Dollars remaining will transfer onto the second semester beginning balance of your Flex Dollars. At the end of the school year, all meals and Flex Dollars must be used and will not transfer.
• If you have added extra meals or bonus munch money to your plan during the year those dollars will remain with your account until you spend it, even into the next year.
