About Meal Plan & Dietary Accommodations

Brevard College seeks to include students with disabilities in all aspects of college life, including dining experiences.  For students who reside on campus, dining services are an important part of residential life and are included with Room and Board fees.  Please refer to Brevard College Dining Services to learn about facilities and menu options.

Typically, Brevard College Dining Services can meet special dietary needs. Oftentimes, students are encouraged to meet with the Dining Services manager to discuss specific dietary needs and how accommodations can be made. Exemptions from the Meal Plan are rare and are made solely for documented health conditions that require medically necessitated diets or a disability that cannot be accommodated by Brevard College Dining Services. In the rare instance that Dining Services is deemed unable to provide a reasonable dietary accommodation, the student will be granted an exemption. Room and Board fees will be adjusted depending on the date that the Office of Student Accessibility & Disability Services approves the official request. There are no retroactive refunds.
