This plan is included in the traditional residence hall contract and provides unlimited access to the dining hall. Students may eat as much or as little as they like and can enter and exit as often as they choose during posted hours. All food must be enjoyed inside the dining halls, as carryout is not permitted.
The Block-20 Plan is a great fit for faculty, staff, and students living in on-campus apartments. The Block-20 Plan provides 20 meals in the University Housing dining hall. All food must be eaten while in the dining halls as we do not permit carryout. Students may purchase the Block-20 Plan on our Housing Portal with a debit or credit card. Faculty and staff may email our contracts team at housing@siu.edu with their name and Dawg Tag to gain access to our Housing Portal.
More than one Block-20 Plan may be purchased at a time, or additional blocks may be purchased throughout the semester. Block-20 Plan funds roll over until the last meal is served for the Spring semester, at which time any remaining funds in the account are forfeited. There are no refunds. Dining plans purchased by individuals living off-campus will include tax.
