Keep your dreams big, and follow them fearlessly — the Wolf Pack is behind you.

This is a campus that cherishes its diversity and thrives on differences of opinion. Here, tradition complements revolution; hard science collaborates with art. Students of all cultural backgrounds push and transform together, and they do it with soul – by being 100 percent themselves.

On this campus, you will be inspired.

Your neighbors will be inventors, makers, storytellers, scientists, entrepreneurs, musicians, and artists. They’ll start businesses and create masterpieces for fun. And they’ll help each other succeed every step of the way.

Loyola You’re becoming part of a creative collective.

Loyola is a music conservatory, an art gallery, a laboratory, a recording studio. It’s a coffee shop where writers, philosophers, and scientists all influence one another’s work. Here, you’ll do more than perfect your skills. You’ll learn the business of art – ways to protect your intellectual property and monetize your creativity.

You’ll witness the impact of your ideas on other people and on your industry as a whole. And you’ll do it all alongside singers, sculptors, rappers, playwrights, web designers, and creatives of all kinds. YOU’LL LEARN HOW TO TAKE YOUR CREATIVITY AND MAKE IT INTO A CAREER.

Perfect your skills as you learn the business of art.
