Choose Your Meal Plan
All incoming undergraduate students are required to have a meal plan, and Loyola Dining Services provides several meal plan options to meet each student's tastes.
- Dining plan options for first-year students include a combination of weekly meals that must be used each week and flex meals that can be used at any point over the course of the semester.
- All plans also include Wolf Bucks, a declining balance on your account that can be used for food purchases and snacks at campus dining locations.
- You can change your meal plan without penalty within the first two weeks of the fall and spring semesters.
If you need to talk through any meal plan questions and changes, please contact us!
