American Dining Creations

All students will have access to unlimited meal plans allowing them to eat when they want and as much as they wish in MSOE’s Dining Commons, located in the Campus Center building. The unlimited meal plan is a robust program; students can enjoy as much or as little as they need to stay healthy and focused without worrying about when and how to dine.

Two-Year Residency Requirement

During the two-year residency requirement, students who live in one of MSOE’s Residence Halls participate in the unlimited meal plan. Using this plan, students eat in the Dining Commons when they want and as much as they wish from Monday – Friday from 7 a.m. – 10:30 p.m. and weekend hours 10 a.m. – 9 p.m.

After the Residency Requirement

Students who have met the residency requirement or who live off campus are not required to have a meal plan. Meal plans are optional and available to meet individual students' needs. Students who live on campus and have met the residency requirement or live off campus have a few dining options.

  • Purchase the unlimited meal plan.
  • Purchase a block plan.
  • Purchase meals on-campus as needed.
  • Choose not to use the meal plan and dining services.

Residence Life Cinema 

Residence Life Cinema is an all-in-one streaming platform available for free to students who access it on the university network. Residence Life Cinema offers up to 1,200 movies and TV series free for students. New movies are added monthly. The platform is also available to student organizations and campus groups. Our agreement allows for groups of up to 50 people to watch a movie or TV show on campus without the need for additional copyright agreements.

Equipment Available for Check Out

General equipment, such as games, vacuums, and sporting equipment (e.g., soccer balls, volleyballs, footballs, and basketballs) are free to all residents.

Internet

RJ45 ethernet connections are available in each room for access to the Internet and interconnection between rooms for work groups. Students living in Margaret Loock Hall will need a wireless router. All other residential buildings include native wireless routers; personal routers are prohibited. Students also have access to Wi-Fi across campus.

Laundry

Washers and dryers are located in the basement of Margaret Loock Hall, basement of Viets Tower, and fourth floor of Grohmann Tower.  Students do not pay for laundry; it is included in their cost of living on campus.

Raider Plan

The Raider Plan (using one's MSOE ID Card) debit system is used on copiers, vending machines, at the bookstore, the dining facility, the Viets Tower convenience store, and various off-campus locations.
