Loyola University New Orleans Top Questions

Lots and lots of booze!!!!!

I brag about the community. We are such a diverse group of students, professors, and people in the community. Here at the university, people are involved in so much community service, sports, and special projects related to their fields. As a Music Ed major, there are programs that go out to schools in need and assist teachers! There's just so much out here for every major. Everyone here really loves calling Loyola home. We evacuated recently, and it's so uplifting how much people worked together, and came right back to the school they love.

You have four years to be irresponsible here. Relax. Work is for people with jobs. You'll never remember class time, but you'll remember the time you wasted hanging out with your friends. So stay out late. Go out with your friends on a Tuesday when you have a paper due Wednesday. Spend money you don't have. Drink till sunrise. The work never ends, but college does.

We have very small class sizes, particularly once you get into your major classes.

Despite the constrictingly small size of Loyola, I can still brag that I know I made the right decision. Even when Loyola University feels more like Loyola Junior High, I still feel a sense of being at home on campus.

I first talk about the great city of New Orleans. Then I tell them about how Loyola focuses on teaching students to think critically, and question everything we read. The teachers want us engaged in classes, so discussions are common. The class sizes are perfect: 30 people at the most. Many teachers want to get to know you for who you are, and that is really important to me. I also love MARDI GRAS! Its the most wonderful time of the year!
