Dietary Accommodations
RISD provides reasonable accommodations for students with food allergies as well as for those with medical or religious reasons. Students living on campus can use their dining allotment, which is included with their housing package, to purchase special meals.
If you need to establish a special diet, work directly with RISD Dining to develop your plan. You may email Maureen Young or call 401 709-8508 to set up a meeting to discuss diet specifics with her and Executive Chef David Gould.
If you require a special diet for medical reasons, please complete and submit a medical accommodations form for approval.
We invite you to work directly with RISD Dining to develop a plan; please let us know about your food allergy/special diet concern or if you require a special diet in accordance with religious practices (i.e. Kosher or Halal):
- Contact Maureen Young at myoung01@risd.edu or by calling 401-709-8508
- A meeting will be set up for you to discuss the specifics of your diet with Maureen and David Gould, Executive Chef
Students requiring special diets for medical reasons are encouraged to request Medical Accommodations with the approval process detailed here.
