Loyola University Chicago is Chicago’s Jesuit,
Catholic university. It is a private research university that was founded in 1870 by the Society of Jesus and is one of the largest Catholic
universities in the United States. Its faculty, staff, and students come from all faiths and backgrounds but together they strive toward the
same goal—being men and women for and with others. Loyola students receive an education that stresses the importance of knowledge,
curiosity, global perspectives, and cura personalis, which translates to “care for the whole person.” Students at
Loyola don’t just talk about making the world a better place—they get to work. Loyola has created 867 internship community
partners and students have logged more than 100,000 volunteer hours in Chicago.

schools and colleges offering 80 undergraduate majors, 80 undergraduate minors, and 140 graduate, professional, and graduate-level
certificate programs. Loyola provides a Core Curriculum grounded in the liberal arts—a curriculum that encourages students to think
critically, to express themselves clearly, and to discover meaning and purpose in life. There are study abroad opportunities offered in more
than 50 countries, including Loyola’s own John Felice Rome Center.
Loyola athletes compete in 15 Division I sports. Loyola also
offers more than 30 intramural and club sports, as well as 250 student organizations and clubs, ensuring that every student can explore
