Student Services
A college is a true community, a living and learning environment that students call home during their college careers. An array of student services is made available helping students:- to achieve their full academic potential
- to receive academic and personal assistance when needed
- to grow and develop in character and personal abilities
- to live in a safe, healthy and positive campus environment
In this section, we highlight the offerings of a number of departments at Loyola dedicated to these goals:

From freshman placement testing to the review of graduation requirements, the Center works with students to plan their educational programs through an extensive advising system and provides services to help students with the challenge of Loyola’s classroom work.

Operated by the Writing Department, the Writing Center offers resources and trained writing tutors to improve academic papers in every stage of development, from developing initial ideas to assistance with grammar and proofreading.
