Meal Plans
- Campus Meal Plans
- Meal purchase is required for on campus living.
Meal plans are available for students living on or off Lakehead's campus, or you are not enrolled in a meal plan then you can choose to visit the cafeteria and purchase meals as you wish. We recommend that exchange students select Townhouse or Apartment-style residences which have a shared kitchen among 4 housemates. This is a more cost-effective option, and allows you to cook your own meals in your own residence. Alternatively, exchange students may be able to live in 1st year dormitories, which require the purchase of a meal plan.
