My son is a fifth-year senior at college.  At this point, I give him a "pile of dough" at the beginning of the Fall term, and it's up to him to stretch those dollars out over the course of the semester.  I've been doing this for two years now and it has worked very well.  Thankfully, he is a pretty responsible kid with regard to money.
