Student Support
Greyhound Battalion Scholarships
The Greyhound Battalion Scholarships program provides merit-based financial support to these cadets and their families, helping them cover tuition and living expenses as they work toward becoming commissioned officers. Your gift helps relieve financial barriers for these dedicated students, ensuring that every cadet who feels called to serve can do so. This program will be funded in part by a challenge grant made possible by the Rollins-Luetkemeyer Foundation. Every donation will be amplified through a 1.5x match challenge.

Greyhound Battalion Fund
The Greyhound Battalion Fund provides critical support that ensures a thriving and robust experience for Loyola’s Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) program. Loyola students who participate in the Greyhound Battalion enter the military better positioned to follow a lifetime of leadership and service to America.
Distributions from this endowed fund offer much-needed resources and provide our cadets with an enriched and well-rounded experience. This includes attendance at leadership seminars and conferences, ROTC speakers’ series in development and service, field and training equipment, non-issued athletics uniforms dedicated to intercollegiate competitions, and programmatic support for functions including recruiting events, cadet orientation, award ceremonies, and formal events.
