- What I personally like about the location is that downtown is only a 15 mins drive away from the campus, this allows me to explore the city more on weekends and also to look for potential internships. Additionally, the convenience of public transport (CTA) allows you to reach any part of the city you desire. You also get best of the both worlds, some days you want to be away from the city, the university's location has multiple accessible beaches and parks in the neighborhood along with the lakeside view (the pictures of the sunset you get are truly stunning).
- The opportunities are innumerable, theres constantly openings for many on campus job opportunities, student organizations/clubs and research opportunities for undergraduates as well as graduate students. Also many events are hosted throughout the semester; cultural events like Diwali and corporate events where employers visit the campus. Personally, I have made many friends through these events, they help you network and get to know people with similar interests. Loyola also gives out several scholarships which is great considering its a private university in Chicago.
- The classroom size is another great thing about Loyola. Personally, graduating from a private high school in India, I am comfortable with small classroom sizes and used to individual attention from the teacher/professor. The professors at Loyola make the effort of getting to know you and learning your name. Unlike some of the big universities in the US with a classroom size of 200+ students, Loyola has an average size of 35/40 students in a class and this allows students to interact with each other and the professor. It also makes asking doubts and questions easier and makes it easier for the professor to help every student.
Dislikes
- Despite the scholarships Loyola gives out, it is still expensive. People from a good economic bracket would also find this university pricey. Also, living in Chicago in general is going to be expensive, this includes amazon packages, and other similar services.
- Depending on your preference of the type of weather conditions you like to live in Chicago may or may not be favorable to some. Personally for me, I do not enjoy cold & dry weather, walking to classes and dining halls back and forth is a bit of a task for me. Also in the time I have spent on campus, the weather is quite unpredictable due to global warming, there were times where it started raining out of nowhere and I didn't have an umbrella on me.
- Living on campus can come with its own problems. Showering and using communal bathrooms can be hard. People often do not clean up after themselves, despite the staff making it their best effort to clean frequently, people still end up making it dirty immediately after. This issue isn't specific to Loyola however, its relatable to anyone living on campus in any university.
Placement
- About 80% of the batch secures a job within graduation
- Average salary would be 15k per year
- They usually find jobs by applying on linkedin or campus recruitment. There are job fairs on campus that include multiple recruiters to have stalls.
- The experiences have been good, many of them are happy with their salary and have a good position in Downtown Chicago.
- Students work in Chicago in big companies like Google and Microsoft and Pinterest.
- As a freshman it was compulsory for me to live on campus
- I dont have a monthly rent as its paid according to every semester, the facilities included are laundry services.
- No challenges, just that I was paired up with random roommates.
- My only recommendation would be to find people and get to know them so that you can choose who you want your roommate to be.
- My accommodation is a five min walk from all my classes and Indian students stay among all the other students.










I chose this school because it is a small, liberal arts school so I knew that I would be focused on as an individual. I also chose the school-based off of athletics. I run on the track team here so it was important to me that the team and training fit my needs.
Placement
There are no placement and job opportunities if you do not have a federal work-study. While you can get jobs in the city they are far away and to make it you would have to pay for transportation. This makes it so many students don't work.
It is in the city and it also has a campus. This was very important to me when I came from Michigan. I loved that I would be able to access the opportunities from the city and also be somewhat close to home.
Placement
I actually work for the career center at my university, however, there are never 'placements' into jobs or internships. The job opportunities are posted on the online job board, however, many of which are unpaid.
I wanted to be in Chicago and have a college that was community-driven. The campus is beautiful and all of my classes are taken in the heart of downtown which was a big selling point for me. I enjoyed the environment when I visited.
