DU Dining FAQs

You can do all of these transactions at the DUposit [1] page.

Panther Dollars can be used throughout your Davenport University career. They never expire throughout your time at the University.

Dining Dollars expire at the end of each semester.

Meal plans reset Sunday night at midnight.  Depending on the plan selected, you have 7 days to utilize the total number of meals.  These meals can be used anytime the Dining Hall is open.  They do not carry over to the next week or the next semester. 

A purchased meal block is a declining balance of available meals to last throughout your Davenport University career.

Your personal account information can be accessed at the DUposit [2]page.

The Platinum, Silver and Gold Plans are intended for use by the plan owner only.  You can use your Dining Dollars or Panther Dollars to buy a meal for a guest if you have these meal plans. 

Block plans allow for you to use your meals for yourself or anyone else.  However, when a block plan is used up, more meals must be purchased.

Dining Hall hours are set by the DU Administration, with guidance from Dining Services and Residence Life.

Based on DU Resident needs, and feedback through surveys and the Housing Advisory Team, it was determined we would better serve our customers with an all day dining operation. So, beginning in Fall 2011, the Dining Hall will serve meals throughout the day.
