Away from Campus Dining Plan Accommodation Request

If you will be away from the AU campus during your internship, you can request to have your dining fees refunded. To obtain the refund, you'll need to complete an away from campus accommodation request form before the 10th day of class.

To access the application, go to your AU Access page and at the My Campus tab on the left is a section called Tiger Dining. Click Away from Campus Dining Plan Accommodation Request.

You’ll need to submit your schedule that shows you are registered for the HDFS Internship course. This schedule can be found on your AU Access page. You’ll access it at the My Academics tab. Please sure that your name is in the top right corner next to the AU logo, that it states the semester for which you are requesting the exemption and that the internship information is listed.

More detailed instructions can be found on the HDFS Internship homepage under the FAQS
