FLEX Dollars
Flex Dollars is a declining balance program available to all VU students and employees. It is an easy and secure way to dine when and where you want. You purchase an account with as many Flex Dollars as you want $25, $50, $100, etc. This account is coded on your student ID. Any time you want to eat at the JSU cafe, or the Dining Center, you simply present your student ID and your purchase amount is deducted from your account. It’s simple, and because you don’t have to carry cash.... It’s secure! Parents can add to the plan over the phone with a credit card. Flex Dollars may be purchased at the Dining Services Information Desk located inside Tecumseh Dining Center, or call 812-888-5841.
