Additionally, they enjoy a 5% discount at all dining locations except for the Farmers’ Market. Unspent Dooley Dollars carry over from Fall Semester to Spring Semester and Summer sessions but expire at the end of the academic year.
- Meal Exchange- Meal swipes may be conveniently used for meal exchange items at White Hall, Twisted Taco at WREC, Banjo Coffee or the SAAC Café on the Clairmont Campus.
Students can sign up for a dining plan or add Dooley Dollars to their plans at any time throughout the academic year by going to the My Housing Web. Students are allowed one change to their meal plan each semester.
