Dining Dollars

What Are Dining Dollars?

Dining Dollars have a dollar-to-dollar value and can be used at any Dining location for any menu item. Grab a Starbucks Frappuccino® from Minard, try our famous quesadilla from Twisted Taco, or devour one of our specialty creations from Burgers at the U.

How Do I Use Them?

Before checking in at the dining centers or checking out at the coffee shops or food court, let the staff know you will be using your Dining Dollars, then tap your NDSU ID Card or GET app to the payment reader.
