Cat Dollars

You will be able to use Cat Dollars anywhere on campus including all Dining Services operations, the Campus Store, Marketplace, laundry facilities in Housing, to print and copy in the library, and more. CatDollars balance carries over or rolls over year after year. Cat Dollars balance is only refundable upon disassociation from the university.
