The Collegium program is a living-learning community of 72 students who live on the same floor with classmates in two of their academic classes. Students in the Collegium program learn collaboratively; sharing questions about study methods and challenging each other’s intellectual assumptions and abilities. This ready-made community provides support, friendship and intellectual companionship for each student thus enhancing your experience at Loyola College and helps you to feel “at home” soon after you arrive.
In addition, Collegium members are enrolled in a First-Year Experience course (FE 100). Students participating in the program have the opportunity to use and develop their leadership skills by organizing social and cultural activities. “I believe that Collegium is an excellent way to meet new people....It gives you a chance to go through two of the same exact classes as a number of people on your floor, which gives you the benefit of studying and adjusting alongside people that live right next door!” “College can be quite an adjustment and living with the people you take some of your classes with helps so much. You can have study groups and everyone from your class is right down the hall if you have problems with homework.”
There are only 72 spaces available for the Collegium program and spaces are allocated on a first-come first serve basis. |
