Loyola University Chicago
Loyola University Chicago, a private university founded in 1870 as St. Ignatius College, is one of the nation’s largest Jesuit, Catholic
Universities and the only one located in Chicago. Guided by our Jesuit heritage, Loyola educates students to understand that we must
act upon what is learned–to use our values in service to humanity. We are called to make a difference as “persons for others.”
Recognizing Loyola’s excellence in education, U.S. News and World Report has ranked Loyola consistently among the top &national
universities (#99 in the 2016 edition) in its annual publications. Loyola is among a select group of universities recognized for
community service and engagement by prestigious national organizations like the Carnegie Foundation and the Corporation for
National and Community Service.
