Hmm, that's a tricky one. If she does have disordered eating, she might be very defensive about it, and confronting her about it might just drive the behaviour underground, if you know what I mean.
(How long has she been going out with her boyfriend? Sometimes when you fall head over heels you lose your apetite for a few months, maybe that's all it is...)
I think it would be best to take her at her word when she says she's really busy. Maybe you could say something along the lines of "hey I know you're really busy, is there anything I can get to make things easier?" Like multivitamins of fish or something good for your brain for studying.
Keep it helpful, don't make a big deal out of it and just keep a quiet eye on things... I'm sure it will all turn out fine!
(Talking from personal experience here, and I turned out OK!)

I would jeep wacthing her and if it gets worse ask her. You're concerned and that completly normal but her not eating can lead to other issues. So yes I would ask and if she gets denfensives and changes the subject she's most likely does have soemthing going on.
My sister had an eating disorder, at least what I think was a disorder, as she never felt hungry and would sleep on an empty stomach after studying all day long. I did 2 things to get her out of it.
1) Bought her foods I knew she loved, which opened up her appetite.
2) I carried her out of her room to the dinner table.
Best of luck

Just ask her. Don't worry if she gets mad probably means she does and you can get her help and she will appreciate it
You have to sit her down and talk deep about it.
