Biomedical laboratory science senior Maryssa Trupiano studies for her final exams on Dec. 8, 2015 at Iorio's Gelateria, 1034 Trowbridge Road, in East Lansing. She said that she usually studies in her dorm in Brody, but came out to Iorio's because she heard that they were giving out free coffee to students.

It’s hard to prepare a meal or even make time to go to the closest dining hall for one.

However, it’s important to make time for decent meals to keep students going through late-night study sessions.

Thankfully, many restaurants in the area know students tend to stay up late and offer late-night delivery.

Here is a list of places that deliver late into the night for students pulling all-nighters any time of the year.

Insomnia Cookies stays open until 3 a.m. every night, which is a benefit for students who need a sweet treat to keep them going while studying.

Insomnia Cookies almost always has a deal for students. Currently, Insomnia Cookies offers a deal for one students and a study buddy to get six cookies and two milks for $12 until Dec. 21.

When studying and writing papers during finals week, time is of the essence. So when you need food fast and at late hour, Jimmy John’s can be a good fit. A quick bite while studying can help you focus more on studying and less on food. There are also multiple locations on campus to reach a wide range of people.

Indulging in caffeine is something almost all students do in order to survive finals week, but as it gets later at night, it is hard to find a coffee place open. East Lansing’s Biggby Coffee is open 24 hours, which can be a huge benefit for students who want a cup of coffee and need a quiet place to study late at night.

Pizza is an expected part of studying in college. Pizza House is open until 4 a.m. and almost always has student deals. The restaurant also delivers into the night, which can be a bonus for students in bigger study groups.

Pita Pit is a fresher alternative to the typical junk food students consume throughout finals week.

It’s open until 1 a.m., which is late enough for a study snack. The delivery service makes it easier while you study for your tests.

Not a lot of ice cream or sweet shops are open after 8 p.m. Iorio’s Gelato has both espresso and gelato, both of which will give students a sugar boost for a long night of cramming. The shop closes at 10 p.m., making it a good stop before you can’t look up from a chemistry book all night. Iorio’s has good space for studying during the day in addition to student deals.

Coupons can also make choices easier when deciding what to get during finals week. It’s a good time to use up The State News’ coupon books and just worry about passing your tests.
