Disability Services

Clemson University is committed to providing educational opportunities for all students and assisting them in making their college experience successful. In compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, Clemson University recognizes a student with a disability as anyone who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activity. Individualized accommodations for students with disabilities are coordinated through the Office of Student Disability Services. Reasonable and compensatory strategies are developed confidentially with each student based on the nature of the disability and the academic environment.

Students requesting accommodations must provide current documentation of their disability from a physician or licensed professional to Student Disability Services in Redfern Health Center (Voice/TTY (864) 656-0515). For more information, visit Student Disability Services Student Guide.

Food Service

TeaThe University provides several economical meal plans. Harcombe and Schilletter dining halls feature an unlimited seconds policy, except on selected entrees, while Clemson House dining room, Canteen and Fernow Street Café serve meals on an a la carte basis. Students dining at the Clemson House may use the meal card as a cash equivalent or for a predesignated meal at no additional cost. Meals may also be purchased on a cash basis or with the Tiger Stripe account (declining balance account).

The "branding" concept in dining facilities is available on the Clemson campus. Chick-fil-A is located at the Union Canteen; Pizza Hut Express is at the Fernow Street Café; and Burger King, Lil Dino's, Freshens and Chicken and Biscuit are located in the Hendrix Center. All of these dining facilities accept the Tiger Stripe account and cash.

Students may choose one of eight meal plans. More information on meal plans can be found at Clemson's Dining Services page.Meal plans begin immediately after a student obtains a meal plan at the beginning of the semester and end after the evening meal on the day of graduation at the end of each semester.

All students may choose a meal plan on a semester basis or pay for individual meals. Meal plans include: Unlimited Access, Any 15, Plus Any 15, Any 10, Plus Any 10, Five-Day, Commuter Five and Commuter Forty. Graduate students may terminate this agreement for any reason. Failure to participate in a meal plan does not automatically release a student from the meal contract.

Students may change meal plans at the billing of spring semester fees with no service charge. Students may change meal plans after the first two weeks and prior to the last six weeks of the semester by paying a $25* service charge. Changes may be made at the Tiger 1 Card Office next to Harcombe Dining Hall on Mondays only. All adjustments will be prorated, except for students withdrawing from the University. Students may upgrade during the registration period.

Contracts canceled for any reason after service of the first meal will result in a refund of advance payment minus a $50* termination charge and a weekly charge for meals available. The meals-available charge applies to the meals that have been served, not those that have been eaten by the individual student. No refunds will be made the last six weeks of any semester. Requests for refunds may be made at the Tiger 1 Card Office next to Harcombe Dining Hall.
