Dining Plan Exemptions
Ordinarily, the only allowable reasons for exemption from the required participation dining plan include:
Medical Exemption:
A student who has a medical condition requiring a diet that cannot be met by Tiger Dining may be exempted upon receiving the approval.
Students should complete the Dining Plan Exemption Application then mail or fax to the TigerCard office. Please include a letter concisely and fully describing your dietary circumstances along with supporting documentation from a licensed medical physician. The physician must be an impartial individual who is not a family member. Students and physicians should avoid making requests for exemption based on conscious choice or medically unsubstantiated beliefs. Vegetarianism is not normally considered a valid reason for dining plan exemption.
Religious Exemptions:
A student whose religious beliefs impose dietary restrictions that cannot be met by Tiger Dining may be exempted upon approval from the Dining Contract Administrator.
Students should complete the application form and mail or fax to the TigerCard office. Please include a written explanation from your religious counsel.
Financial need is not an allowable reason for exemption from the Dining Plan.
Applications for exemption must be received by August 1 for Fall Semester and by December 15 for Spring Semester. Students receiving an exemption during a semester must reapply each semester. Exemptions will not automatically renew each semester. You will be notified of approval or denial within two weeks of application. All decisions for exemption are at the discretion of the Dining Contract Administrator and are final.
