As a summer housing resident, you are provided access to the Summer Meal Plan as part of your summer housing rate. You will be provided $250 Dining Dollars per summer session to use on campus at the Sub Connection as well as in the Viking Grounds Coffee Shop. Your Dining Dollars can be used for any individual item or combo meal at any of these locations. You choose how you spend your Dining Dollars!
 
Accessing Your Dining Dollars
Using your Dining Dollars is as simple as swiping your Student ID card (or door access card, for those who are non-Augustana student summer guests). Each time you use your card, the cashier will provide you a receipt that shows your remaining balance. You can also check that balance in the Dining Services and Student Affairs offices throughout the summer as well.

Adding Dining Dollars
Additional Dining Dollars can be added at any time to your account. Simply visit the Dining Services office to make your purchase or call us at 605-274-4800. Any dollars you add yourself will include bonus dollars and will stay on your account for as long as you are a student at Augustana.
 
Additional Information
Your Summer Meal Plan Dining Dollars will roll over from Summer Session I to Session II. Any remaining meal plan dollars will be forfeited at the end of Summer Session II (August 4th, 2023). As a summer housing resident, your housing rate is inclusive of the meal plan and is yours to use as you choose. It cannot be separated from your housing rate and is not refundable on its own - whether or not you choose to use your plan, it will not change your summer bill.
 
Not Staying on Campus?
If you are not partaking in the Summer Meal plan because you aren't living on campus, you can still enjoy the great convenience of eating on campus by adding Dining Dollars to your Augustana ID. As previously stated, Dining Dollars that are added outside of a meal plan will stay with you until you are no longer a Viking. Plus, any Dining Dollar purchases over $25 dollars are automatically given a free 10% bonus!
