COVID-19: Updates and Resources

Maroon Financial Credit Union is committed to serving its members, wherever they live, even if they are far away from The University of Chicago campus.  Our top priority is the health and welfare of the members of our community.   With the cancellation of Spring Quarter classes and new work from home arrangements, many of our members will be spending considerable time away from campus.

As the impact of coronavirus COVID-19 continues to unfold, Maroon Financial has taken steps to protect the health and safety of our members, employees, and community.   You may experience longer call wait times than you are accustomed to.  Please be assured that we are committed to answering your call as quickly as we can.
