Meal passes to Bryn Mawr's Dining Halls are offered to Bryn Mawr students who are not part of the unlimited meal plan.

Regardless of whether you are enrolled in a partial meal plan or no meal plan at all, we understand that there may be moments when you may find yourself either low on meals and/or funds. That said, this service is meant to be utilized on an on occasion basis.

Storage Transportation Service

Round-trip transportation to storage facilities during campus move-in and move-out are offered to students who are unable to set up their own accommodations due to affordability and/or access. Additionally, students are encouraged to attend one of our Storage Workshops held during the spring semester.
