Drexel Dining Plans

Urban Eatery

Drexel Campus Dining Plans are required for First-Year students living in a Drexel residence. First-Year resident students are required to purchase one of the three First-Year All-Access Dining Plans for fall, winter and spring terms. Visit drexel.edu/dining for additional information including rates, dining locations, menus and hours. Students may request an accommodation/exemption from the dining plan requirement.

How to Register for a Dining Plan

Step 1: Log in to the Dining Plan Portal in DrexelOne

  • Visit DrexelOne
  • Click on the Campus + Community tab
  • Click on the Housing + Dining link
  • First-year residential students will select their Dining Plan option within their Housing Application

Step 2: Complete All Prompts and Submit

Complete all pages in the dining registration process and click "submit" on the last page. You will receive a confirmation email to confirm your registration is complete, sent to your official Drexel email account.

If you are under 18 years of age, page three (3) of the application will ask that you submit a parent/guardian email address for co-signature. Once this is complete, you may continue the application.
