Indiana University has partnered with Weight Watchers to help you reach your weight-loss and wellness goals. Weight Watchers memberships are available at no cost to the following individuals:

  • Full-time (75% FTE or greater) academic and staff employees; and
  • Spouses covered on an IU medical plan

IU covers 100% of cost of WW; however, per IRS rules, the value of the program is considered a taxable benefit. This means you will pay income taxes on the value of your membership (and your spouse’s, if applicable), and that amount will be reported on your W2 at the end of each year. To learn more about taxation review the Frequently Asked Questions.
