All students are required to leave during the Christmas break. Arrangements can be made if you plan on staying during that time. Charges will be applied and students must pay in advance for the extended stay.
Students in residence are required to purchase a meal plan which totals 19 meals per week. That breaks down to three meals a day Monday to Friday and two meals a day on Saturday and Sunday. The cafeteria remains open during the Thanksgiving Weekend and closes during the Easter weekend so eating arrangements must be made for any student staying during that holiday.
