Memorial Hall contains three services that Hofstra students will use on a regular basis. Those are Student Financial Services, The Center for University Advisement, and Bits ‘n Bytes, one of our 19+ campus eateries.
Every student at Hofstra is assigned an Advisement Dean and a Student Financial Services Counselor, both found in Memorial. SFS will help students with all of the scholarships, grants, and loans they receive. The Advisement Deans will help students create a plan for graduation and make sure they are staying on track with their classes and credits.
The newly renovated Bits ‘n Bytes contains a made to order burger and salad station, a pizza and pasta station, a fresh panini station, and a Red Mango frozen yogurt station. Bits ‘n Bytes also brews and serves fresh coffee and tea.
The meal plan at Hofstra works like a debit system. Instead of having swiping for a certain number of meals per week, each item purchased has its own cost. This allows for much more freedom during the dining experience at Hofstra.
ABOUT THE BUILDING
Named to honor World War II veterans, the building was designed by Embury. In 1952 Hofstra students sponsored Operation Wing Ding to raise money to add a new wing to Memorial Hall for student dining and meeting space. Memorial Hall is home to Bits & Bytes, The Center for University Advisement, Academic Records, The Office of Graduate Admissions, Services for Students with Disabilities, and Student Financial Services.
