F.I.R.S.T.

Team Building Exercise at Rope Course

Please note: F.I.R.S.T. will not be offered for the Fall 2025 term.

Find. Ignite. Reflect. Serve. Transition.

F.I.R.S.T. provides students the opportunity to begin their Loyola journey with strong friendships and a loving community formed through the lens of interfaith exploration, social justice, and Ignatian spirituality. Throughout their days together, students will participate in a team-building ropes course, an interfaith pilgrimage to various faith spaces in Baltimore, and a community service day in our local neighborhood. F.I.R.S.T. participants will open their first year having already experienced a glimpse of the Evergreen campus, life in Baltimore, and the Loyola family.
