On-Campus Dining Options

A well-fed Brandeis student is a happy Brandeis student. Luckily, there's no shortage of dining options on campus:

  • Usdan Student Center is home to two separate food courts: Upper Usdan Food Court, which offers soups, salads, sandwiches, burritos, and sushi, all prepared fresh daily, and Lower Usdan Resident Dining, an all-you-care-to-eat facility that offers an even wider selection, from vegan and vegetarian options to international cuisine, pizza, salad, and more.
  • Sherman Dining Hall is another all-you-care-to-eat facility, housed in the Hassenfeld Conference center. It provides a range of glatt kosher and nonkosher meals.
  • For students on the go, Brandeis offers a convenience store, Hoot Market C-Store, an Einstein Bros. Bagels, and several sandwich and coffee stands throughout campus, including Dunkin's and Starbucks.
  • And the options don't end there. If you choose to bring your own food, you can always store and heat up your food at the Graduate Student Center (Gerstenzang 127). 

Graduate Student Meal Plans

Graduated students may also choose from any commuter or campus residential options. During the first few weeks of each semester, students may choose to change between plans. The meal plan selected in the Fall will automatically renew in spring for the plan chosen in the fall unless otherwise changed prior to publicized deadlines.
