Loyola University Maryland

“My favorite thing about Loyola is how green it is here. I love that our campus has so many trees and flowers all around. The fact that we are so close to the water and that fresh seafood is easily available here is also a plus. I can’t imagine being anywhere else for these four years.”

“I would encourage an international student considering studying at Loyola to take advantage of the university’s supportive community, academic resources, and opportunities for involvement. Loyola offers a welcoming environment where students from diverse backgrounds can thrive academically, socially, and personally. The university’s commitment to social justice and service provides a meaningful context for learning and growth, and the vibrant city of Baltimore offers endless opportunities for exploration and discovery.”

“I chose Loyola because of the great Division I soccer program and excellent marketing major. When I arrived on campus, everyone at Loyola was so welcoming. All my professors have been so supportive, too—constantly exposing me to internship opportunities, offering advice, and answering questions. Here, I can be who I truly am and be accepted fully.”

“One of the many lessons I learned at Loyola is that to grow and develop as an individual, it’s key to step outside your comfort zone—to become comfortable with the uncomfortable—because that’s where life starts. Loyola made me want to chase the difficult, the uncomfortable, the unknown. I became confident at Loyola because I was supported here. Loyola has readied me for whatever the world has in store.”

“Throughout my journey here, all my professors, my evergreen, and my ISP mentors have been the best of people, guiding me to make my experience at Loyola better every day. Nominating me as an evergreen, supporting my decisions, and helping me decide what roles I want to do, everyone plays a major role.”

“Loyola is a great school with a lot of diversity and a beautiful campus. My favorite aspect of the Loyola experience is the whole atmosphere on campus, especially in the spring when everyone is outside and playing spike ball or other fun games together!”

“I chose physics as my major because Loyola has a unique 3+2 Physics and Engineering Combined Plan Program. My goal is to end up in engineering, and I believe the foundation my physics major provides will allow me to have a solid foundation as I move on to my engineering degree.”

“I remember being hesitant coming to Loyola because I was worried about connecting with people and not being treated differently based on where I was coming from and who I was. I can say confidently that Loyola made me feel so welcomed. I chose Loyola not only because of the great financial aid I received, but also because I could really tell the school was built on a sense of community. From the first day I set foot on campus, the amount of care and support I received made me feel so seen and heard. It was so easy to call Loyola my home.”

“I find Loyola University Maryland a second home to me. I love the loving community and caring professors, the energy is quite different from how it is in Mongolia. However, I still find myself growing and thriving in this new environment, and I can’t imagine myself anywhere else. I cannot help but get excited to welcome the new international students!”

“I love the people here. Loyola is filled with students, faculty, and staff who are kind, supportive, and eager to help each other succeed. The community here makes all the difference... Everyone here is welcoming and open, and you’ll meet individuals who are happy to share their experiences and support your journey. I’ve built strong friendships and have never felt alone.”
