Over the years we have accommodated many students with specific dietary needs who live in residence and dine with us multiple times a day.
If you wish to meet to discuss allergens/intolerances and/or dietary restrictions due to medical conditions, we ask that you fill out and submit the Allergen/Dietary Form on the Food Services website.
Students are also encouraged to contact our Registered Dietitian and Food Safety Officer (dietitian@utoronto.ca) with any requests for dietary accommodations or allergies. They can help navigate the dining hall, and also help to establish accommodations for complex allergies or dietary restrictions.
Students who indicate that they require dietary accommodations when applying to these residences will have their circumstances reviewed by the Residence Life Offices and be contacted by our Registered Dietitian and Food Safety Officer if necessary. When the student arrives to Chestnut they will also be introduced to the culinary teams who will support their needs throughout the school year. Students with anaphylactic allergies are always asked to have their auto-injector on them in case of emergency.
