Dining Dollars
All undergraduate students who live in a residence hall use dining cash for meal plans assigned based on the availability of a kitchen in the residence hall. participate in the university’s on-campus dining program. Dining Dollars are included as part of both the unlimited and block dining meal plans. Information on dining plans can be found on the GW Dining website.
All non-food purchases made at retail partners, including campus stores (such as the GW Bookstore), and GWorld non-food retail partners, must be made with Campus Cash, which students may voluntarily add to their GWorld cards.
