College Admission at Loyola

One of the last events for Loyola University Chicago‘s Black History Month celebrations was Ebony Ball. On Friday, Feb. 22, the Black Cultural Center hosted this formal for the first time at Regents Hall in the Lewis Towers on our campus downtown.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLkaEYVVkoE I am already getting close to finishing off my fifth week in the spring semester! Where has the year gone? With the organizations that I have been a part of, we have done a lot of work on Loyola University Chicago’s campus and off. In the video above, my African dance team, AfroDescent, performed [...]

During my senior year of high school, I had the opportunity to travel to South Korea for a mission trip where I taught at a local school, visited many popular tourist spots and explored the Korean culture and lifestyle. Through this experience, I learned how much I loved traveling and experiencing different parts of the [...]

This has led to quite a bit of reminiscing over my study abroad experience while I was a junior at Loyola University [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, fall means travel season for Admission Counselors! So far I’ve spent a total of 9 days on the road and I’ve driven a total of 1,794 miles throughout Indiana! That’s an average of 199 miles per day, woah. While I love fall travel and the opportunity to meet with so many [...]

This semester I am taking a total of 15 credit hours at Loyola University Chicago. The scheduling also worked out very well so I could have the option to find a campus job to earn in between my classes. I was able to get the opportunity to be a student worker with Undergraduate Admissions! Working [...]

It is my first time living in this residence hall, so I am excited to see how different the dynamic will be from living on the Lake Shore campus for two years. Baumhart Hall is apartment [...]
