The Office of Student Affairs announced new changes to Loyola’s meal plan options including the inclusion of Iggy Bucks to existing meal plans in a recent email to students. These adjustments come as an effort to provide students with more flexibility based on feedback from students and parents, according to the email.

New meal plans will include some combination of weekly meals which reset every week, flex meals that can be used at any time throughout the semester, Wolf Bucks that can be used at Loyola’s on-campus dining options, or Iggy Bucks, which were introduced in fall 2020 to allow students to eat at certain off-campus restaurants, according to the email.

The email encouraged students to choose a meal plan for the fall that best fits their needs and reminded all on-campus students that they are required to have a meal plan unless granted accommodations from the Office of Accessible Education.

The following meal plans are offered to all students staring in the fall semester:

• Maroon and Gold: 12 weekly meals and $660 in Wolf Bucks at a cost of $2782 per semester.
