MAP

A Navigational Tool for Student Success

MAP: A Navigational Tool for Student Success is a pre-fall experience designed to support first-year students as they transition into life at Loyola University Maryland. Through a curated series of programs, workshops, and activities, students are introduced to academic success strategies, campus resources, and the broader Baltimore community. The program emphasizes intercultural exploration and personal reflection, encouraging students to better understand themselves and others while building a strong sense of belonging from the very beginning of their college journey.

Students are placed in small groups led by trained peer Navigators who serve as mentors and guides throughout the experience. Together, they engage in team-building activities, meaningful discussions, and opportunities for community engagement. MAP is designed to help students connect, build confidence, and feel prepared to actively engage, explore, question, and discern their place within the Loyola community as they begin their first year.
