College Accommodations for 

Students with Celiac Disease




Why We Exist

Celiac College Guide (CCG)is a not-for-profit which seeks to help students with celiac thrive in college through informed decision-making and advocacy. Approximately ⅓ of students surveyed expect to be glutened once in a while. This is unacceptable. Together, we can make change.

The mission of the College Celiac Guide is to:

  1. Inform the college selection process for gluten free students by providing accurate and up to date information about gluten free dining and accommodations at colleges and universities around the country
  2. Inspire increased dialogue around the necessity of safe dining for students with celiac and increased communication between all stakeholders.  This includes supporting the collection of student experiences with gluten free dining at colleges and university to deepen the information shared by the institutions as well as the sharing of best-practices.
  3. Impact change in colleges and universities in order to provide safe, healthy, varied and delicious options for gluten free students and staff.

The Celiac College Guide provides information about educational institutions’ approaches to gluten free dining and support of the Celiac community.  The guide uses public information, survey data from the schools’ themselves and student ratings of their experiences. All information provided in the Celiac College Guide listings is accurate to the best of our knowledge. However, students and families should conduct their own research and confirm details directly with colleges to ensure that their specific needs are met. Reviews represent the perspective of the reviewer and not the CCG.
