Meals Provided for Students Staying on Campus Over Winter Break

Are you a student who is staying on campus over winter break? Do you need a reliable and affordable way to get your meals while the dining halls are closed?  

If so, please fill out this form by Thursday, Dec. 5, to reserve free meals over the winter break.  

Please indicate the dates you need meals, your dietary restrictions and whether you can access a refrigerator, can opener, utensils and other food-related tools. 

Students should expect follow-up communication to verify the details via their UARK email. 

Since the dining halls close at 5 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 13, affordable meal options can become limited for students who opt to stay on campus during the break. 

University Housing, U of A Cares and the Jane B. Gearheart Full Circle Food Pantry are partnering to provide meals to students staying on campus in the residence halls during winter break.  

Most residence halls remain open during this time. For a complete list of halls and communities that remain open, visit University Housing's Contract Dates webpage.
