Top questions asked by students last year

  • How do I add or drop a class?
  • Friday, Sept. 6, 2019, at 5 p.m. is the last day for undergraduate students to add/drop fall 2019 courses. Continuing full-time students may use any computer with WebAdvisor access to add and drop courses. In-person dropping and adding courses is available to all students at AASC (MH 138). Contact the academic advising and support center for more information.
  • Where can I eat on campus?
  • Loyola offers a variety of options when it comes to dining. Check them all out on the dining website. Remember, the last day to change a meal plan is Sept. 6, and you can do so via the RoomRez portal, accessible under Quick Links on inside.loyola.edu. In the mood for something different? You can easily order from Grubhub, our campus partner for food delivery.
  • What are some options for off-campus dining?
  • When it comes to food, Baltimore has hundreds of options for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner. From locally-owned to recognizable favorites, it’s impossible to go hungry here. Use your Evergreen card at participating off-campus restaurants. Discover trendy coffee bars, food trucks, and traditional dishes from far-off places—all within a few miles of campus. See the list of places college students have ranked “best of Baltimore” for burgers, Indian, wings, sushi… you get the idea.
  • Where can I get help with technology?
  • Can't connect to the Wi-Fi? Forgot your password? Need software? When you have a technology concern or question, Loyola’s student technology center is your best place to start.
  • What are the neighborhoods surrounding Loyola’s campus like?
  • Baltimore has always been a city of neighborhoods, each one with its own personality. Many are defined by their architecture, landmarks, and parks; most all take great pride in their history and culture. These areas of the city—and the people who live and work in them—add to the “charm” of Charm City. The neighborhoods surrounding the Evergreen campus are no exception. Explore the neighborhood map.
  • This is a little harder than I thought it would be! I need someone to talk to.
  • College is a huge transition, and sometimes we all need someone to talk to. Loyola offers many resources for students including the counseling center. Students who are having roommate issues should talk to their RA or visit the Student Life website for more information. And keep in mind your Messina Evergreen, mentor, and faculty member are all available to help!
