Estimating Your Room and Board Rates for 2008- 09
Residence hall room and board rates are approved at the University of Michigan Board of Regents' meeting in March or April of each year and made available on the housing web site after the meeting. To assist you with your planning, we provide "not to exceed" rates for each room type before you are required to sign a contract. Actual rates are not anticipated to be greater than the "not to exceed" rates. More information about the Room and Board Rate-Setting Process is available below.

Meal Plan Options for Returning Students
In conjunction with the opening of the new Hill Dining Center next fall, we will be offering new meal plans based on extensive input collected from students through surveys and focus groups over the past year. Details about the new meal plans will be provided before the end of the term. Returning students will have the option of selecting from any of the new meal plans or two of our most popular plans—the Any 9 or the Any 13. Other existing meal plans—the Any 18 and 135 Plan—will be discontinued. As in prior years, your contract will automatically include the Any 13 meal plan and you will have the opportunity to change meal plans during the first month of the Fall Term. For more information about meal plans, please visit www.housing.umich.edu/dining/mealplan_roomboard.html .

New Meal Plans Coming Soon!

For new and returning students, we expect to offer one or more block plans that will offer a set number of meals per term, as well as one or more new unlimited plans that allow students to eat in the residential dining rooms as often as they like. The features of these plans will be somewhat different from existing block and unlimited plans. We are now in the process of refining the new meal plans and expect to complete our review and provide more information in early March. 

 

Room and Board Rate-Setting Process
Residence hall rates for the next academic year are discussed during the winter term by a student and staff rate-setting committee. The committee develops a recommended rate increase that is presented to the Director of University Housing and the Office of the Provost for review. University Housing, through the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs, ultimately proposes a rate schedule for approval and adoption by the Board of Regents. The Board of Regents has the final authority in setting major University fees, including room and board. University Housing will publish a final rate schedule, contingent on the Board of Regents' approval, as soon as it is available after the Regents' meeting. Approved rates will also be published on the University Housing web site.

University Housing is a self-sustaining auxiliary unit of the University and is required to generate sufficient revenue for both operational and capital improvement expenditures. It receives no General Fund or State of Michigan allocations. University Housing makes every effort to operate its facilities in a cost-effective manner and to keep any annual rate increase to the lowest possible amount so that room and board remains accessible to U-M students.
