Deakin Card for current student residents

(Warrnambool Campus and Geelong Campus at Waurn Ponds)

View your meal plan and Resi$ balances by following the links in the right hand box.

Resi meals

Residents at Warrnambool and Waurn Ponds are given the option of several set 'resi' meal allowances. These meal allowances are loaded onto the student’s Deakin Card at the beginning of each trimester. To obtain these meals, the student brings their Deakin Card to the dining hall. The card is swiped through a reader that deducts one meal from the student’s weekly meal allowance. This allowance is renewed every Sunday.

The dining room caters for special dietary needs and provides Asian, Halal and vegetarian meals, among others.

Resi Dollars (Resi $)

In addition to the set meals, student resident Deakin Cards can be loaded each trimester with 'resi dollars'. This money can be used at any food@deakin outlet (Alliance) at any time throughout the trimester, giving resi students more flexibility with their meals.

Student resident Deakin Cards can be used for all other functions, including photocopying and printing. However, to use these services funds need to be loaded onto the card. Resi dollars can only be used at food@deakin (Alliance) outlets.
