Dining Dollars work like a pre-paid debit card that allows for purchases at Shafer Court Dining Center or any VCU retail dining location.
As long as you have a dining plan, you may purchase additional dining dollars ($25 minimum) online by credit card only at any time during the semester. Dining Dollars cannot be billed through the VCU Department of Student Accounting and must be purchased through VCU Dining Services.
Dining Dollars do not carry between semesters.
