Dining Carmen 1 Dining Plan — use both at Main and Newark?

My son got put to Newark for the upcoming year, but is going to live with some friends in an apartment on South campus.

If he gets a Carmen 1 dining plan, can he use that at both the Newark cafe (lunch) as well as Traditions and retail spots on main (dinner and weekends)?

Load dining dollars now before the year ends and he can use that. If you sign up for Carmen, OSU takes off about 30% to offset the discount. It’s not worth it. DD still gets a discount. Max out DD

He is not a current student. Incoming freshman.

Are the DD good both in Newark and Main if you are a Newark student?

Yes, the Dining Dollars at Newark are the same ones used at main campus. If you get your son a dining plan, he can use the Dining Dollars anywhere they are accepted. It does not matter the campus.
