Meals and Points
Meal Plan Points are included with meal plans. These points are "dollars" that are part of your meal plan and can be used like cash at any dining location at Barnard. You may use these points to purchase à la carte meals and snacks. Barnard's Meal Plan Points carry over from the Fall semester to the Spring semester if you remain enrolled in a Barnard meal plan in the Spring. However, Meal Plan Points remaining in your account at the end of the academic year are forfeited. Any unused meals are forfeited at the end of each semester.
Although students will be able to upgrade to the Platinum Plan or downgrade to the Flex 75 Plan, they will need to participate in meal plan delivery if they are required to quarantine or isolate during the semester.
Quarantine or isolation meals will be deducted from each student's meal plan, so students should plan accordingly. If a student runs out of meals, they will be responsible for the additional costs for daily meals while in quarantine/isolation meal coverage. If you have questions about quarantine/isolations meal coverage, you may contact spring2021@barnard.edu.
Barnard students may purchase meals throughout the year in increments of 5, 10, 20 swipes and points in increments of $25 as needed directly from Chartwells.
Barnard students may use their meal plans at Hewitt Dining Hall, Liz's Place, Milstein Center, and the Diana Dining Room on Barnard's campus or John Jay, Ferris-Booth, and JJ's Place on Columbia's campus.
Students may change their Spring 2021 meal plan on the Meal Plan Change Form through December 18, 2020.
Meal Plan Defaults
Students residing in Barnard campus housing (regardless of their building assignment) will be enrolled in the Standard Plan (150 Meal per term + 625 points). Students can change their meal plans starting November 13.
Barnard College Students residing at 600 W 113th St will be enrolled in the CU Plan A . Students may change to any CU Meal Plan listed on the change form.
Students residing off-campus or commuting from home will not be eligible to purchase a meal plan or points for the spring 2021 semester.
Meal Plan Selection
Barnard students are automatically enrolled in the default meal plan based on their residence. If a Barnard student wishes to choose a different meal plan within the requirements above, the student may select a plan by December 18 on the Meal Plan Change Form and submit any additional cost to the Bursar.
Columbia students for Spring 2021 are not eligible to enroll in a Barnard Meal Plan. However, Columbia students may purchase meal swipes in increments of 5, 10, and 20 and points in increments through the Chartwells site.
Submitted forms must have the student's actual signature (not a typed font). If you cannot fax or scan/email a signed form to us, you can use a website like pdfescape.com/open to fill out the form, draw your signature, and then send the signed form to us. Changing a Meal Plan Selection
