Housing & Dining
University Housing The Office of University Housing provides on-campus accommodations for most of
the freshmen class. It is important for your student to abide by departmental and
university rules and regulations. Being familiar with the Housing Handbook by
Move-In Day (Sunday, August 14) is the best way to start the school year off right!
In early August residential students will receive a letter sent to their university email
address which details Move-In Day info. Once students know their room assign-
ments, we suggest reaching out to each other to get acquainted and maybe plan
room décor or who will bring what supplies to help cut costs and save space!
Students will need to make sure that their first payment for housing and meals is
made prior to the University Deadline for Tuition and Fees.
Students should check their University Email for detailed packing and
move-in instructions. On Move-In Day (Sunday, August 14, 2016), Students and
parents will print their Golden Ticket and follow their specific route indicated on the
map (emailed to the student’s University Email address) to their unload zone. Once the
vehicle is unloaded by volunteers, students and parents will proceed to park accord-
ing to their map. They will then proceed to the Student Union (620 McKinley St.),
where they will watch a welcome video and receive their room key. Next the students
and parents will have access to a community fair before going to their rooms. Once
at their building, the students should find their belongings in their rooms awaiting
their arrival. Once move in is complete, residents are invited to attend a welcome
event that evening.
University Housing is divided into three operational sections regarding on-site
management and residence life. Should your student need to consult with a
professional above their Resident Assistant (RA) or Community Director, please have
them contact the appropriate person:

Frequently Asked Questions
UL Lafayette Dining Services
The Dining Services staff works tirelessly to ensure UL Lafayette students, faculty,
and staff receive the highest caliber in dining and service. One of the top ways
Dining Services does this is by catering to the allergy and nutritional needs of its
students as much as possible.
Despite nutritional options in the cafeteria, college is well known for the
“Freshmen 15” effect. UL Lafayette Dining Services helps students fight the
Freshmen 15 by actively engaging them with the nutritional calculator to help gauge
food options and serving sizes.
Dining Services offers many meal plan options (including commuter) consisting of
varying Cypress Lake Dining Room meal swipes, flex meals used and retail
locations, and declining balance (dining dollars) amounts. Should your student get
to college and decide to alter his or her meal plan to better fit dietary habits, all
meal plans can be changed through the first week of school by visiting the UL
Dining Services customer service table outside of the Cypress Lake Dining Room.
