History
The College's first "campus" was a modest house on Holliday Street in downtown Baltimore. In 1855, Loyola relocated to a larger facility in the City's historic Mount Vernon neighborhood. The College moved to its present Evergreen campus in north Baltimore in 1922. Evening classes commenced in 1942, and seven years later a graduate division in Education was established. The graduate degree program in Business Management was added in 1968, followed by graduate programs in Speech Pathology in 1971, and Finance in 1973. Today, the College's list of graduate programs has grown to include Psychology, Modern Studies, Pastoral Counseling, Computer Science, and Software Engineering. Loyola became coeducational in 1971, following its joining with Mount Saint Agnes College, a neighboring women's college that was experiencing financial difficulties and closed following the joining. That same year, the College's Board of Trustees elected its first layman Chair. A decade later, Loyola established a separate business school - The Rev. Joseph A. Sellinger, Jr., School of Business and Management. Mount Saint Agnes College was a Catholic college for women located in the Mount Washington neighborhood of Baltimore, Maryland. ...
The 1994 approval for a chapter of Phi Beta Kappa - an honor for the Arts and Sciences faculty held by only 254 other institutions - complemented the 1988 accreditation of the Sellinger School by the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business. A loyal alumni population, strong corporate and civic support, and the dedication and commitment of the laity who assist the Jesuit priests in their work have all helped make Loyola the institution it is today. Loyola College is the first college in the United States to bear the name of Saint Ignatius of Loyola, and is the ninth oldest among the nation's 28 Jesuit colleges and universities. The Loyola College Trustees in 1977 adopted the name Loyola College in Maryland to differentiate the institution from the three other Loyolas (Chicago, Los Angeles and New Orleans) and to better reflect the regional recruitment strategy that has characterized the school's dramatic growth and development from a local commuter school to a regional and residential university in the last three decades. Today, undergraduate enrollments have more than doubled since 1977, and four of every five undergraduate students comes from outside Maryland. The Trustees have retained the word college in Loyola's name to underscore its primary mission as a liberal arts undergraduate institution, although The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching classification categorizes Loyola as a master's university (see college for a discussion of the distinction between the two terms in American usage). The Phi Beta Kappa Society is an honor society which considers its mission to be fostering and recognizing excellence in undergraduate liberal arts and sciences. ...
Saint Ignatius of Loyola, also known as Ignacio (Ãñigo) López de Loyola (December 24, 1491 â July 31, 1556), was the principal founder and first Superior General of the Society of Jesus, a religious order of the Catholic Church professing direct service to the Pope in terms of mission. ...

Academic programs The foundation of a Loyola education is a broad core program that covers basic knowledge and concepts in the humanities, math and science, and the social sciences. The purpose is to balance general education and specialized study in the major. Undergraduate degrees are awarded in two schools – The College of Arts and Sciences and the Joseph A. Sellinger, S.J. School of Business and Management. The College of Arts and Sciences offers degrees in biology, chemistry, classics, communication, computer science, economics, education, engineering science, English, fine arts, global studies, history, an honors program, interdisciplinary studies (including American, Asian, Catholic, Film, Gender and Medieval studies), law, mathematical science, military career, modern languages and literatures, nursing, philosophy, physics, political science, pre-health curriculum/programs (including medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and optometry/podiatry), psychology, sociology, speech-language pathology/audiology, theology and writing. The Joseph A. Sellinger, S.J. School of Business and Management offers degrees in accounting, business economics, finance, general business, international business, management, management information systems, marketing and the Sellinger scholars program. Loyola College in Maryland is one of the foremost providers of professionally focused graduate education, offering a distinctive complement of programs with exceptional scope and depth. With more than 3,400 graduate students pursuing over 100 degree, certificate, post-degree and professional education enrollment options, Loyola serves as a major center for development opportunities in the Baltimore-Washington region. The graduate program offers degrees in computer/software engineering, business/finance, education/teacher certification, liberal studies, Montessori education, psychology, pastoral counseling/spiritual care and speech language pathology.
Mission statement Loyola College in Maryland is a Jesuit, Catholic university committed to the educational and spiritual traditions of the Society of Jesus and to the ideals of liberal education and the development of the whole person. Accordingly, the College will inspire students to learn, lead and serve in a diverse and changing world.
Core values Loyola’s core values include academic excellence, focus on the whole person, integrity and honesty, diversity, community, justice, service, leadership, discernment, and a constant challenge to improve. From the time of their founding four-and-a-half centuries ago, Jesuits – beginning with their founder, St. Ignatius Loyola – have had a distinctive way of looking at life. Their characteristic Ignatian worldview has permeated their educational and spiritual apostolates, and has been shared with hundreds of thousands of women and men formed by Jesuit teaching and pastoral care. This Ignatian worldview includes the following characteristic notes or emphases: 1) openness and enthusiasm toward the whole of God’s richly diverse creation and for the human person as its crowning glory; 2) hopefulness and pragmatism in seeking graced solutions to life’s challenges through creative use of all available gifts and resources, tempered by realism and compassion about the reality of human weakness; 3) sustained critical attention to motivations and choices based on the conviction that individuals, through the exercise of their freedom, exert a real influence on their world and one another for good or for evil; and 4) commitment to a life of growing integrity and increasing service to God and others after the Gospel model of Jesus Christ. As a Jesuit, Catholic university with a 150-year history, Loyola College adopts and adapts these characteristic emphases of the Ignatian heritage and reflects them in its life and work. Loyola’s Jesuit tradition was complemented and enriched by the tradition of the Mercy Sisters when the College joined with Mount Saint Agnes College in 1971; and Loyola continues to remember and to recognize with gratitude the gifts which it received as a result of that joining, as will be seen in the text below. One of the particular ways in which Loyola preserves its religious heritage while recognizing and incorporating the necessary openness to pluralism which is characteristic of American higher education today is by encouraging all of its constituents to cultivate and to live by certain core values. During the preparation of the current strategic plan, groups representing the various constituencies of the College community met to identify and articulate what these core values are at Loyola today. Their deliberations resulted in the following list, the order of which in no way reflects a ranking in order of importance; indeed, while the values listed are discrete, they are also strongly connected and interrelated. There was, however, a fairly broad consensus that the values most typically associated with Jesuit education in the public mind over the centuries, and still today, are its commitment to academic excellence and its focus on educating the whole person. There was also a widely shared sense that these two values, along with all the others which follow, are bound together by the characteristic Jesuit striving after the “greater good,” the “better thing,” which Loyola highlighted when it called its last strategic plan Magis.
Vision Statement The education of men and women of compassion and competence, imbued with the desire to seek in all things the greater glory of God, represents the enduring aspiration of Loyola College in Maryland. That ideal, first elucidated by St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus and namesake of this university, continues to guide Loyola as it strives to lead students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends forward to the promise of an examined life of intellectual, social and spiritual discernment. In pursuing these goals, Loyola asserts a bold ambition: that the College will be among the top Catholic universities in the United States. The standards by which we measure that achievement will be many: the enrollment of outstanding students; the creation of a diverse and supportive community; the cultivation of a rigorous intellectual climate; the scholarly achievements of the faculty; the recognition of peers; the intellectual and professional attainments and generosity of spirit of the alumni. Loyola will do so by providing undergraduate students with a liberal education that transforms them, that ensures they place the highest value on the intellectual life, and that instills in them an understanding that leadership and service to the world are intimately connected. Likewise, Loyola will be a recognized leader in graduate education, offering programs which are responsive to the needs of the professional and academic communities it serves, inspiring its graduate students to leadership, and inculcating in them the knowledge that service to the larger world is a defining measure of their professional responsibilities fully understood. In all of this, Loyola College will remain ever mindful of the Jesuit precept that the aim of all education ultimately is the ennoblement of the human spirit.
Admission Admission to Loyola is selective. More than 8,000 students apply for admission as freshmen for approximately 900 spaces.

Completed in late summer 2007, the new freshman residence hall is the College’s first “green” building, designed to conserve energy and reduce negative impacts on the environment. Located adjacent to the Loyola/Notre Dame Library, the residence hall will house 340 students in 170 rooms. The traditional semi-suites feature a bathroom shared by two rooms. Ten Resident Assistants will monitor the building, as well as two graduate students and two staff members. The hall will also feature one large lounge and two study areas on each floor, a laundry room, a multipurpose room, and a “Jazzman’s” food cart for convenient “grab and go” items. There will be a large community kitchen on the first floor, as well as floor kitchens on the 3rd, 4th and 5th floors. - Joseph A. Sellinger, S.J., School of Business and Management
The Joseph A. Sellinger, S.J., School of Business and Management Building opened its doors in January 2000. The 50,000-square-foot (4,600 m²) facility features innovative learning space and faculty offices; a soaring, five-story glass façade; an open atrium; 11 state-of-the-art classrooms; a four-story glass tower; and three seminar rooms. In 1924, a small chapel in Mount Washington was disassembled and brought to the Evergreen campus. After World War II, its remains were sold to a developer and the money was put toward the construction of a permanent chapel. In September 1949, ground was broken on the current Alumni Memorial Chapel. Its gothic style features large stained-glass windows and a long, narrow nave situated along the east-west axis. A statue of Our Lady of Evergreen, Queen of Peace, is situated above the front façade. The chapel was formally dedicated on September 15, 1952. - Rev. Francis X. Knott, S.J. Humanities Center
The Humanities Center was built by the Garrett family in 1895 as a wedding gift for one of their children. However, the child died during a trip to England and the large, Tudor-style mansion became a rehabilitation center for men blinded during the war. In 1921, Loyola’s Jesuits purchased the Evergreen property from the Garretts and gradually moved the College from its location on Calvert Street. The mansion was originally used for classes, but then became the Jesuit residence. In 1955, it suffered severe fire damage and was converted to offices following the restoration. Today, the Humanities Center houses 16 departments, including Admissions, Alumni Relations, Financial Aid and the Philosophy and History departments. Named after the Rev. Vincent Beatty, S.J., a past president of Loyola, this building houses the departments of Sociology, Education, Psychology and Political Science. Community service More than half of the student population has participated in some community service activity during their time at Loyola. The Center for Community Service and Justice engages students by developing service opportunities in a wide variety of areas. The Center offers nearly 40 ongoing community service programs, more than 15 one-time service opportunities throughout the year, and several immersion programs. Students also have an opportunity to become involved through service learning, which pairs community service with academic coursework. At Loyola, students are encouraged to develop a lifelong habit of service rooted in a concern for others, an understanding of one’s spirituality, and an awareness of local, national and global social justice issues.
Study abroad Study abroad is a major component of a Loyola education with sixty percent of students studying abroad during their junior year. Students can choose from 21 different programs, exchanges and affiliations in 16 countries. Loyola-sponsored programs are located in Alcala, Spain; Auckland, New Zealand; Bangkok, Thailand, Beijing, China; Cork, Ireland; Leuven, Belgium; Melbourne, Australia; Newcastle, England; Paris, France; and Rome, Italy. Programs are available for all majors and students have the option of going for one semester or the entire year. Some programs are taught in English, some in the native language, and some a combination of both.

Since its inception in 1952, the ROTC program has commissioned more than 1,100 cadets. Loyola also has "cross-town" agreement with the University of Maryland, College Park, in which Loyola students can remain enrolled at Loyola but participate in Air Force ROTC and graduate as a commissioned Second Lieutenant in the Air Force.
The Career Center The Career Center helps students and alumni discover their career passion by integrating the Jesuit core values and introducing a process of personal discovery and discernment.

Career advisors are available year-round to discuss any career-related topic, such as choosing or changing a major; clarifying interests; obtaining part-time and summer job/internship experiences; planning and conducting a professional job search; obtaining full-time employment; changing careers; and selecting and being admitted to graduate/professional school. In addition, the Alumni/ae Career Networking System provides students with knowledgeable career advice from a network of Loyola alumni who have volunteered assistance. Interviews with employers are arranged on campus for students who are seeking summer internships or full-time employment upon graduation via an on-line job and internship database system, eRecruiting. Assistance is also given in obtaining part-time jobs and semester internships.
