About
Loyola was established in 1904 by Jesuit priests, firmly rooting the institution in the Jesuit beliefs of educating the whole person. Much of our colorful and distinguished history can be seen in those who call Loyola their alma mater: people who went on to become city leaders, teachers, scientists, attorneys, pharmacists, musicians, and business executives.
Here, students use creative thinking to influence the world, amid the unique and vibrant setting of New Orleans. Are you ready?
