What is Dodge Dining Dollars?

Dodge Dining Dollars is an exclusive dining program for use at all dining venues on the Dodge Campus, accessible through the University’s identification card (MavCARD). This program is maintained by the Milo Bail Student Center Business Office on the Dodge Campus. The total funds available each academic year vary based on the selected plan, offering discounts that increase with larger spending amounts.

The Dodge Dining Dollars account can only be used at the Dodge Dining Services locations. By default, transactions at these locations will access your Dining Dollars first, then MavMONEY. Any unused Dodge Dining Dollars will expire at the end of the academic year.
