Dining Dollars

Eating between classes is a breeze with Dining Dollars! They're easy, reloadable, and available for anyone to purchase. Dining Dollars can be used at any on-campus dining location and you even get a 10% discount at all on-campus non-national brand restaurants. Another great perk - 25% of available funds can also be used at select off-campus locations like Giant Eagle and Fuel and Fuddle. Funds do roll over from fall to spring (just make sure to use them before they expire at the end of the spring semester!) Learn more about Dining Dollars and meal memberships.

Home for the Holidays

Already thinking about how to travel home during breaks? We make it easy with our Buses Home for the Holidays program! This is designed to give students a safe, comfortable alternative ride home for the University's three major recesses: Thanksgiving, Winter, and Spring. Deluxe motor coaches (Lenzer/Coach USA) transport students in air-conditioned comfort to their home town with most of the destinations serving direct routes.

Visit the PT&S website for ticket pricing and locations.

Hungry? Try an Unlimited Meal Membership!

Want unlimited access to all things Pitt Eats? The unlimited meal membership provides students with full access to The Eatery & The Perch, plus 10 Flex swaps to use on friends and family (or even yourself) and a daily Meal Swap to use at any retail dining location. Weekday unlimited is for that student who wants all the benefits of unlimited access during the week but maybe spends time away from campus on the weekends.
