Cassandra

A person whose primary goal in college is to party every weekend, who does not want to take their academics or their career seriously, and who wants to attend a large university and on a large campus.

Liliana

Someone who is majoring in the fine arts because our department is relatively small. Someone who is looking for a traditional state school experience that involves fraternities, sororities, beer pong, football, and minimal effort.

Roxie

Someone that isn't ready to work hard and give it lots of time outside of class. Also someone that has a hard time with arguing about religion or views, because many will not share your relgion or same views..especially teachers.

I believe this school is best for everyone. Everyone is friendly and it is a very open place.

If you don't like the city, Loyola is not for you. If you want a "college town" feel, Loyola is not for you. If you love sports, Loyola is not for you. If you expect to party all the time, Loyola is not for you. If you don't plan on attending class or working hard for your grades, Loyola is not for you.

Jessica

You shouldn't attend Loyola if you are looking for an awesome social life. The school is focused on studying hard and doing well so you can get a good job one day. There are not designated frat or sorority houses and there are only a few bars around campus to go to. If you don't want to study a lot and be focused on your schoolwork first, this is not the school for you.

Nicole

Someone who doesn't like the big city life or public transportation.

Giancarlo

People who plan on living on-campus should attend Loyola. The school is very expensive and it is hard for commuters and students with jobs, like me, to get involved and get their money's worth. That said, if you are motivated and and serious about whatever field you want to go into, this school is always worth checking out. Most professors are passionate about their subject and do what they can to help all the students they have.

Julia

Somone who really likes to go out and meet a lot of people. It's super difficult to do so.

Matt

Almost everyone can fit in at Loyola; however, one is only able to succeed if they dedicate themselves to their coursework. Loyola is known for it's diverse community that enjoys giving back to the surrounding area. If one has no desire to do these things then, perhaps, Loyola may not be the perfect match.
