Bagels and a Moe’s Southwest Grill on the first floor and a multipurpose room for a living/learning community model. Room Rates Room rates start at $3,650 per semester ($7,300 per year) for a basic double room. The rates will vary depending on the residence hall where you are registered to live; see additional room rates online at www.widener.edu/BursarOffice. Meal Plan Rates for 2017–18
