Carte Blanche Meal Plan

If you have a Carte Blanche meal plan, you can use your ENMU ID to enter the Crossroads Café Dining Hall as many times a day as you want during the normal hours of operation (see Crossroads Café hours below).

Option 19, 14 and 10 Meal Plans

The Option Meal Plans give you a set number of meals per week paired with a varying number of Flex Dollars. These plans give you flexibility to use your meal plan funds to not only eat in the Crossroads Café, but also at the various dining venues on campus. If you are on one of these plans that have a limited number of meals per week (Option 19, 14 or 10), each time you swipe your ENMU ID card to enter the Crossroads Cafe, that counts as one of your meals for the week. Meals are allotted for the week; additional meals beyond your designated number cannot be used.
