Loyola University Chicago

I came here for an Ohio State Fisher College of Business Alumni event.
This is a really nice building. Front entrance is complete with badge or key-​card entry with security staff their for assistance. Take the elevator or the stairs up to the floor of your event. The south side of the building is all windows providing an extremely modern feel and beautiful view of the outside.
This is an impressive building and fits the mold for 2015 downtown Chicago working professional space.

I am sort of a transfer whore. I transferred from a big state school to a small state school to this private school. My experience with Loyola has been great, and I regret not going here right off the bat.
Although Loyola is technically a Catholic institution, it rarely feels that way (with the exception of the 3 theological credits you need to graduate). We have a student-​run mosque on campus, and while there are many conservative people on campus *because* it is a Catholic school, there’s still plenty of diversity.
There are lots of women on campus, so the University is very female friendly. There is also a significant gay-​male population as well, so if you live an alternative-​to-​mainstream lifestyle, you can bet that you will be welcomed.
Also of note is the faculty, who are excellent. While not trying to generalize, generally the faculty really care about their students, and are very experienced in their field. I have had a great experience with classes at this institution and the professors work hard to make you enjoy their classes.
I would highly reccommend this University.

I started my graduate work elsewhere and transferred into the social work program. Hands down the most unprofessional school I’ve ever seen. The school is clearly accepting too many people and as a result, the students are suffering. If you don’t live in the downtown area, be prepared to get your internship late, and it probably won’t be in your top picks, and possibly not in your area of interest. While some professors have other «real world» jobs, most do not and it’s obvious that they are teaching theory, not from practical experience. Professors also seem to forget or don’t care that you are doing your internship, and going to other classes at the same time so there is simply no time for busy work such as searching for words that complete a sentence as proof that you read. The buildings are falling apart, the desks are too small for holding a laptop and not built to support today’s technology. There are usually 1 – 2 outlets in a room, try plugging 30 laptops into 2 outlets! Tuition is overpriced to say the least. And the time that Loyola takes to send the paperwork into the state so you can be licensed is ridiculous. Claiming that you can get a job without a license is false, no license = no job! There are some professors that are fantastic, unfortunately, the bad ones greatly overshadow them. If you must go to Loyola avoid Crawley like the plague, and don’t take Singh at the bare minimum!

I am very happy with the School of Social Work at Loyola University Chicago. They have enough money to make Solomon blush and they try to use it wisely. They have helped me in so many ways and I am not nearly done yet.

I really like the downtown loyola campus because it is so close to Michigan Ave in the beautiful city of Chicago. Close to all the stores, shops and boutiques. The only downside is that if you attend Loyola University you won’t have money to spend it on these stores because of tuition.
The school itself is good the buildings are nice and I believe there is a new building now for business majors that will be open soon. The library downtown is really nice, multiple floors with computers on hand. Many rooms with computers to just browse the web or do some homework.
The cafeteria is nice with a good assortment of sandwiches, pizzas, breakfast and drinks.
This school is close by the red line train and there is also a shuttle that can take you back to the Lakeshore Campus.
