Flex Dollars
Click Enter to see the detailsFlex Dollars are tax-exempt funds loaded onto your Central ID Card and can be used at on-campus retail dining locations, including Devil’s Den, Starbucks, and Central Market at Willard-DiLoretto. These funds can also be used to purchase a meal at Memorial Hall and Hilltop Café.
Flex Dollars are included with resident meal plans and are added at the beginning of each semester. Please note that these funds are use-it-or-lose-it. Flex Dollars cannot be reloaded, do not roll over, and will expire at the end of each semester, regardless of any remaining balance.
We strongly encourage you to monitor and use your balance throughout the semester. You can check your remaining Flex Dollars online or by asking a cashier at any dining location.
