Campus housing is available to all undergraduate students at Lewis & Clark a few students, the four-semester requirement may be interrupted for a variety of reasons. The institutional expectation however, is that once the students return to campus, they will complete the four semester requirement. in a variety of residential settings. The College requires all entering students to live on campus for four semesters because we believe that your academic experience is enhanced by the learning that goes on outside the classroom.

The “board” portion of “room and board,” commonly referred to as the meal plan, is required of every residential student. You may choose from among several meal plans. Plans are based on the number of meals, either per week (10-14 plans) or per semester (block plans), and assumes one meal per meal period. Several plans also include flex points. Flex is value placed on your student ID card which you can use like a declining balance. The 14 Flex plan has 150 flex points to use throughout the semester, 10 Flex comes with 175 points. One point equals $1 in value. Points carry over from semester to semester if you remain on a meal plan, however, at the end of the year, any remaining points are lost.

We also offer Block meal plans to juniors and seniors residing on campus who have completed their two-year residency requirement. The first option is a 100 Block meal plan with 200 Flex. So, students can have any 100 meals per semester at any time in Fields Dining Room or for a meal equivalency in the Trail Room. Flex points can be spent at any Bon Appetit location at Lewis and Clark. The second option is a 50 Block meal plan with 300 Flex. Block plans are a good option for student who appreciate the value of Fields Dining Room and the “All-You-Care-to-Eat” program.
