Loyola University Maryland

Strong Truths Well Lived

Since its founding in 1852, Loyola University Maryland’s time-tested, distinctly taught Jesuit education has been giving students the tools and developing the traits they need to learn, lead, and serve in our diverse and ever-changing world—and graduate distinctly prepared to succeed in every aspect of their lives.

OUR PLACE IN COLLEGETOWN

Greyhounds travel in a pack—and nowhere is that more evident than at Loyola. This place, these people, our spirit and traditions, campus life, and shared experiences all comprise the Greyhound Nation: a proud, dynamic, diverse community that challenges, supports, and emboldens students to become the best versions of themselves.
