What Students Are Saying

The dining hall is normally pretty solid if you go during the right hours. Sometimes it is completely packed, which makes for long lines and a bit of a wait. The food choices are normally good, as there are grills, salad stations, pasta stations, and various other options.

Housing staff (RAs) genuinely care about their residents

Food is actually very good. They usually have a theme and you can check the menu for the day online. There are little cafes if you do not want the food in the dining hall. And if you just want something completely different there are some food places across the street off campus.
Bianca from Darby, PA
food in the dining hall can get repetitive, but if you switch up your meals you'll be fine.
Leah from Seaford, NY
The food and dining at Marist College is amazing. There are so many options. Just this semester, a new dining option was added. This new dining option offers sandwiches from a local vendor, flatbreads, smoothies, salads, pasta, etc. and it is a hit among Marist College students. The main dining hall's taco/cupcake Tuesday is also a fan favorite.
Kaitlyn from Allentown, NJ
Sodexo food has so many choices for students to choose from. The dining hall meal plan is very good as well as having the chance to use thrifty cash to get other types of food from other dining services on campus such as sandwiches and salads.
