The Dash Discretionary account is your key to on-campus life. Washers and dryers are ready to use with a simple swipe of your Dartmouth Card. Whether you're cheering on the Big Green or taking advantage of almost any on-campus service or event, your Dash Discretionary account has you covered. Dash Discretionary funds can even be used to make purchases at any DDS location by notifying the cashier.
Dash Discretionary is intended to be a pre-paid, declining balance account; however, if you spend more money than you have in your account, purchases will be covered by a nominal amount of overdraft protection. There are no fees or interest associated with this overdraft service. Unlike an ATM account, Dash funds are not available for cash withdrawal. Annually, at the end of spring term, any amount owed at that time will be transferred to your tuition bill located at Student Financial Services.
To get a sense of the various services available with the Dash Discretionary account and the associated costs, please refer to the Dash Sample Term Budget.
