Bryant takes great pride in our residential community and in providing a wide array of dining options for sustained physical health and the opportunity to share a meal with peers and other University members. Meal plans are required for resident students living in all areas of our campus except the Townhouses and Puishys Residence Complex, which provide cooking facilities.

We see this requirement as fulfilling our commitment to students and their families that we will serve the “whole student”- intellectually, emotionally, and physically. AVI Fresh is a valued partner with Bryant University in ensuring we meet the dietary needs of all resident students. Additionally, this requirement is grounded in economic practicality. Allowing the University to provide a comprehensive dining plan with multiple locations in a cost-effective way requires full community participation. 

Please read our Meal Plan Policies carefully and fully as you make your selection for the coming semester.

  • Meal Plan Enrollment takes place during the housing selection process managed by Residential Life. If a meal plan selection is not made during the housing selection process, and the student lives in an area where meal plans are required, the student will be put on the Unlimited Meal Plan by default. 
  • Changes to your meal plan selection happen through the Residential Life Office. Once a plan is selected, it will remain in place until the following semester. You may change your meal plan selection within the first 7 weekdays of each semester (first 7 days of classes) by using this link:­­­­ MyBryantHousing. If you decide during the semester that you need more meal swipes, you may purchase additional meals, after you have used your initial meal swipes, by contacting Auxiliary Services in the Unistructure: auxilserv@bryant.edu.
  • ID cards are created at the Information Center on the first floor of the Fisher Student Center and meal swipes are added to your card. Should your ID card malfunction at any time, please contact the Information Center at idstation@bryant.edu or stop by. If you are having issues using your meal plan on your ID card, Auxiliary Services can help troubleshoot or fix the issue in some cases and can communicate with the Information Center on your behalf. Depending on the type of Meal Plan you select (Unlimited or one of the Block Plans), you will have unlimited access to the dining halls (Unlimited Plan) or a number of meal swipes will be added to your Bryant ID for the semester (Block Plans). Please see the details of each plan offered on the AVI Fresh site.
  • Meal Equivalency at Bryant allows you to use your meal plan swipe at a location other than the dining halls. One swipe covers a single transaction of a prepared meal with appropriate sides, up to $11.50. Two swipes may be used to cover purchases valued between $11.51 and $23.00. There is a limit of two equivalency swipes per guest, per transaction. The meal plan holder may also choose to use Dining Dollars, Bulldog Bucks or credit to pay for any transaction amount over $11.50. Just let the cashier know your intentions. If your use of a two swipe transaction results in an overage amount, no overage amount will be returned to your card. Students with a Block plan may use their swipes anywhere they are accepted on campus and are responsible to keep track of swipes used as these plans have a limited number of meal swipes for the semester. Students with an Unlimited plan may use their swipes anywhere they are accepted on campus up to 5 swipes per week for locations other than Salmanson Dining Hall and the Corey E. Levine ’80 Dining Commons.

    Meal Equivalency is available for meals at Tupper’s, The Archway Café , Bulldog Bytes Café , AIC Café and The Exchange, which all offer complete meal selections. The Meal Equivalency value can only be used for prepared meals and appropriate side items. Meal Equivalency cannot be used for retail/gift items or for buying in bulk or cases such as multiple beverages, candy or energy bars etc. 

    It is the responsibility of the plan holder to manage their meal swipe balance over the course of the semester. The best value for a meal swipe is to use it at the all-you-care-to-eat dining locations at Salmanson Dining Hall and the Corey E. Levine, ’80 Dining Commons.

  • Guest Meals included in meal plans allow one guest admission to Salmanson Dining Hall or the Corey E. Levine ’80 Dining Commons. The meal plan holder must accompany the guest for the meal. Guest meals may only be used in the dining halls.
  • Dining Dollars are included with several meal plans and can be used to purchase food and beverages at the following locations: Tupper’s, The Archway Café, Bulldog Bytes Café, AIC Café, The Exchange , Salmanson Dining Hall, and the Corey E. Levine, ’80 Dining Commons. Dining Dollar balances carry over from the fall semester to the spring semester each academic year, provided the student remains on a meal plan. If you use up all your Dining Dollars, you may purchase Bulldog Bucks online at the Bryant ID Card Portal. Unused Dining Dollars are forfeited at the end of the spring semester on the last day of finals. No refunds will be issued for unused Dining Dollars upon graduation, withdrawal, or for any other reason. 
  • Bulldog Bucks can be used like cash at all dining locations as well as other campus retail locations. Additional Bucks can be purchased online at the Bryant ID Card Portal. Bulldog Bucks balances remain in a student’s account until graduation or withdrawal from the University. At that time, balances of $25.00 or more will be transferred to the student’s tuition account. If the transfer results in a credit balance, the credit will be refunded accordingly, otherwise, it will be applied to any outstanding balance.

AVI Fresh is committed to working with any student with a dietary restriction diagnosed and documented by a doctor or other appropriate medical professional. If a student’s dietary restriction is impacting meal plan usage, the following guidelines must be followed:

  • An appointment must be made with Accessibility Services on campus: Accessibilitysvcs@bryant.edu, 401-232-6880. Written documentation from a medical professional must be provided, detailing the accessibility-related dietary restriction and how it impacts meal plan usage. 
  • As needed, referrals will be made for an appointment with Cheryl Brock, RD, LDN, Health and Nutrition Educator cbrock@bryant.edu, 401-232-6221. Cheryl will review documentation and consult with AVI Fresh to assess available accommodations.
  • Following this meeting, Cheryl may recommend the student meet with the Resident Director of AVI Fresh to discuss how they can accommodate the dietary requirements.

In extreme circumstances, the University may exempt a student from a required meal plan for documented medical conditions which cannot be accommodated by AVI Fresh. In these cases, Cheryl Brock, in consultation with AVI Fresh, will make that determination and inform the student.

Exemptions will not be considered for vegan, vegetarian, gluten or lactose dietary restrictions as AVI Fresh provides options for these dietary needs at their “Clarity” station which provides safe, delicious choices for diners with food allergies or gluten intolerance. “Clarity” excludes dairy, egg, wheat, soy, sesame, peanuts, tree nuts, fish and shellfish. Other circumstances not considered cause for exemption include work, class or practice schedules, personal preference, or financial considerations.
