Meal Plan Modifications

USC students with a documented medical history may qualify for relief from a meal plan administered by campus dining or their fraternity or sorority.

 Carolina Food Co. makes it a priority to provide an enjoyable dining experience for everyone, regardless of dietary needs and preferences. We offer a variety of resources and programming to make this possible.  Please reach out to the SDRC via email (sadrc@mailbox.sc.edu).

If there are specific dining questions or questions related to the OrderAlly app, please reach out to Elizabeth Derks at derks-elizabeth@aramark.com. Elizabeth is a registered dietitian and is the Carolina Food Co contact.

The SDRC works closely with Fraternity and Sorority Life to provide appropriate accommodations or modifications as needed.
