What is the stereotype of students at Loyola University Chicago?

jake

intelligent and studious, very liberal, ultra-wealthy, lots of women.

Heather

That everyone bought their way into school and that they come from very wealthy families.

Helen

There are some very 'well-off' students per say. But, there are also students who are not so to this stereotype. A lot of students put much time and effort into their community, school, work, and friendships. The campuses (downtown and lakeshore) are EXTREMELY different, so if you go to a tour, make sure you see both. Loyola students do not have a huge social scene.

Emily

Preppy, white, mainly girls, the only guys that go to the school are gay

Adam

Loyola isn't really recognized for its avid social life. Most people see it as a rigorous pre-med school. Loyola doesn't have any male students, and if they're guys: they're gay.

Moira

Snobby, northshore, rich kids. Artsy, hippies

Kelly

Before I came here I assumed that since it's a Jesuit university that everyone here was a Jesus freak!

Everyone is rich.

There are a lot of stuck up rich kids whose parents pay for them to come here; all the boys are gay

I haven't really heard of any stereotypes and if any it's that we are either gay, or rich spoiled brats.

Usually wealthy in some way, especially for out of state students because it's so damn expensive to go here.

There are a lot of stuck-up rich people. Religion is forced upon you.

Loyola is only for rich caucasians and you have to be super smart to get in.
