Background: Food insecurity on college campuses is a pressing issue, yet the ways in which students manage challenges and disruptions to their food security status (FSS) are poorly understood.

Methods: University students at increased risk of experiencing food insecurity ( = 43) were recruited for this mixed-methods study.
