Late-night study sessions. Group projects that stretch past dinner. That post-exam celebration you actually earned. For college students in Chicago, these moments just got more affordable.
Aurelio's Pizza now offers 25% off for college students at their Michigan Avenue location. The discount applies to the full menu of pizzas, Italian beef sandwiches, and Italian-American favorites that have made Aurelio's a local staple.
Real Food for Real Budgets
College life means tight budgets and even tighter schedules. Between tuition, textbooks, and rent, finding quality food that doesn't drain your bank account takes effort. This discount addresses that reality head-on.
The 25% savings applies whether you're grabbing a quick slice between classes or ordering a full pie for your study group. A large pizza that typically feeds four becomes significantly more budget-friendly. That Italian beef sandwich pairs well with splitting the bill among friends.
What Makes It Work
Aurelio's specializes in pizza and Italian-American cuisine built for sharing. Their menu caters to groups, which aligns perfectly with how college students actually eat. Nobody orders pizza alone at 11 PM during finals week.
The Michigan Avenue location sits accessible to multiple campuses and student housing areas throughout Chicago. The restaurant focuses on families and the local community, and college students fit squarely into that mission.
How to Claim Your Discount
Show your valid college ID when ordering. The discount works for dine-in, carryout, and delivery orders. No complicated apps to download. No points to accumulate. Just straightforward savings on food you'd order anyway.
The restaurant maintains active social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram where they post updates about specials and menu items. Following them keeps you informed about any additional promotions or limited-time offers.
Beyond the Discount
Aurelio's runs a rewards program for regular customers. Combined with the student discount, frequent visits add up to consistent savings throughout the semester. The program works for anyone who finds themselves ordering pizza more than occasionally—which describes most college students accurately.
Their menu extends beyond pizza to include various Italian-American dishes. When you need a break from your usual order, options exist without sacrificing your discount.
Make Your Next Meal Count
Your student ID now works harder than just getting you into the library. Visit Aurelio's Pizza at 1212 S Michigan Ave or order online at aureliospizza.com. Bring your college ID and your appetite.

Twenty-five percent off doesn't solve every college budget problem. But it makes dinner tonight more manageable. And sometimes, that's exactly what you need.
