Dining plan will totally suck for incoming freshman next year if apartments are only for upper classmen. Maybe it will improve with the new dining facility that is set to open up in fall across from the new dorms, where the old VGs was located.

Dining was a big concern for my DD, thus she chose Cerro because of availability to cook your own food. The red brick dorms do have a kitchen area for cooking that kids in North mountain may also use. Microwave ovens were located in the common areas. I’m assuming the new freshman dorms will also have some kind of kitchen area.

My DD did complain that shopping for groceries at campus market and village market was a hit and miss. One time she was looking for chicken, but found out they only stocked it once a week and they out sell quickly. Also, parents can keep a track of the student’s
current balance on the dining portal. I’ve had to email and remind her to use more of her dining credit since they won’t roll over to next year.
