Optional Summer Dining Offering

Optional Summer Dining

The acceleRATE Summer Housing Program does not require dining. We are providing an optional dining offering for students who desire one for the duration of their summer housing. Please keep in mind when deciding about whether dining is an option for you, that not all dining facilities will be open throughout the summer and the hours of operation will be fluid. In addition, if you are currently housed on campus and have dining dollars left at the end of spring quarter, you will be able to use those extra dining dollars throughout the summer and even through the upcoming fall quarter.

If you select summer dining, you will be able to dine at an open restaurant and/or HDH markets only when those facilities are open during the summer. The summer dining plan is a declining balance. When dining at a UC San Diego dining facility you must identify yourself as “summer session” to the cashier when paying for your meal.

Check out our UC San Diego Dining Services locations for the duration of your summer stay. The summer dining offering cannot be changed, dropped, refunded, or transferred to Triton Cash.

acceleRATE Assignment Process

Assignment Process

As an acceleRATE summer housing applicant you will be able to submit your room type preference and roommate requests. Housing will assign you to your space.

Students wishing to room with another student will need to communicate with potential apartment-mates in order to request to live together. It is highly suggested that students wishing to room together in an apartments or suite, apply and complete the contract process around the same time in order to better your chances of being assigned together in the same apartment.
