Syracuse University Food Services is committed to meeting students' nutritional needs. We have been very successful at accommodating students' diverse nutritional needs; including Celiac disease. Our staff has been informed and trained on food allergies. We pride ourselves in working one-on-one with students who have food allergies.

If you have any dietary needs due to medical reasons, family medical history and/or food allergies, it is in your best interest to get in touch with Ruth Sullivan before you come to campus so we can discuss how to better accommodate your nutritional requirements. The sooner you get in touch with us, the better. We can schedule a meeting when you arrive.

To help us access your nutritional needs, please fill out the Allergy Form.
