Board Plan

(Assumes board cost plus any applicable Idaho State sales tax)

For the health of our students, to encourage community involvement, and for other reasons, The College of Idaho expects that all full-time students participate in a meal plan. First-year students and Sophomores living on campus are required to purchase Plan A, Plan B, or Plan C. First-year students and Sophomores who live off campus may also purchase the Coyote Cash plan. Juniors and Seniors who live on campus may purchase Plan D or the Coyote Cash plan.

A student may add Coyote Cash onto their meal plan and upgrade to a larger meal plan at any point in the year. Meal Plans A, B, C, or D can be downgraded only during the first week of Fall and Winter semesters. If a student wishes to change their meal plan after the first week, or is approved by the Non-Academic Petition Committee to change their meal plan after the first week, that change will not take effect until the following semester.
