Residential Programs and Services (RPS), in conjunction with the Helene G. Simon Hillel Center, offers a Kosher Meal Plan. All food is prepared at Hillel in their kosher kitchens, and served in the comfort of the Hillel dining room, conveniently located at 730 East Third Street across from Swain Hall (and across from multiple bus stops).
The Helene G. Simon Hillel center has two separate kitchens, meat and dairy, to guarantee strict kashrut observance.
Don’t keep kosher?
You can still sign up for a Kosher Meal plan to take advantage of the great home cooked meals and the community of friends gathering for dinner at Hillel.
Open Fridge Policy:
Just like home, leftovers are common. We understand students’ difficult schedules, so we invite all students to come in anytime and help themselves to leftovers-great for a mid-day snack!

- Discover Hillel Card (Included with purchase of meal plan)
The Discover Hillel Card (a $75 value) is a discount card that can be used for discounts on Hillel functions, Passover meals, & at local businesses. The DH Card also allows students to charge the cost of Hillel programs to home. For more info on the DH Card, please see the DH pamphlet or visit our website.
Note: All meals are all you can eat buffet style . The Kosher Meal Plan does NOT include meals during the week of Passover, but does include High Holiday Meals.
Students Living in Residence Halls:
To be eligible, students living in the residence halls who wish to participate in the Kosher Meal Plan through Hillel must contract for the Cream Standard Plan (value $2,900) with RPS. Students need to contract with and make payment for the Kosher Meal Plan with Hillel. Upon receipt of payment, Hillel informs RPS of your decision and then RPS will makes a corresponding credit to your bursar account of $300 for the fall semester, RPS will process a similar credit after spring semester bills are generated ($300), reaching $600 in total RPS dining credits, equivalent to the cost of the Kosher Meal Plan. All RPS students on the Kosher Meal plan will then start with the Cream Mini Plan. Students will also see a corresponding adjustment in their I-BUCKS account each semester as well (Reduction of 120 I-BUCKS). If you have not already purchased a university meal plan, please take care of contracting for the Cream Standard Plan, understanding that you may reduce the payment you send to IU by $300/semester.
Example:
RPS Cream Standard Meal Plan $2900 for academic year
RPS Reduction (Bursar Refund) -$600 ($300/semester)
Kosher Meal Plan (Hillel) $600
Total Cream Mini Plan & Kosher Meals $2900 for academic year
Students NOT in Residence Halls:
If you are NOT living in a University residence hall, and you are NOT planning on purchasing an RPS Meal Plan, the cost of the Kosher Meal Plan is $600 for the 20010-2011 academic years.
Payment for Kosher Meal Plan:
Payment of $600 for the Kosher Meal Plan must be paid in full to the Helene G. Simon Hillel Center and submitted with the registration form or on this website (see below).
Please note: If you are participating in both the Kosher and RPS meal plan and have already paid the University, you must still submit payment in full to Hillel. Shortly after, you will be credited $600 in two installments on your Bursar account ($300/ semester).
Your Kosher Meal Plan Card will be mailed to you or be available to be picked up at Hillel shortly after receipt of the registration.
