Students can use their Dining Dollars to purchase meals/items in any of the four Panther Dining Centers, Carman & Thomas Convenience Centers, Food Court, and Java B & B. Dining Dollars are good for the entire academic year, provide a 20% discount off the cash/guest meal price in the dining centers, and allow for purchases at the Carman & Thomas Convenience Centers, Food Court and Java B & B.

You may order by clicking the Dining Dollar link at the bottom of the page, or stopping by the Office of University Housing & Dining Services, located in Martin Luther King Jr. Union. The minimum Dining Dollar purchase is only $50.00, payable by money order or personal check. If you are an Eastern employee, student or parent of an EIU student, you may charge your Dining Dollars to your EIU account.

After you have filled out the form, signed it, and mailed it to us, we will send your friend, student or coworker a gift card informing them of their gift and how they can redeem it.

If you have any questions regarding the purchase of Dining Dollars, please call 217/581-8383.
