“With 250 neighborhoods, art, culture, professional sports, music, and an amazing food scene, it’s impossible to run out of things to do and places to explore off-campus. Loyola students quickly learn why Baltimore’s nickname is Charm City. ”

Testimonials

Megan Herman
I chose Loyola due to its focus on students and their whole person. Loyola’s cohort partnership with Montgomery County Public Schools, where I work, made it very convenient to take classes! The professors and internship site supervisors support and guide you through the process of becoming a school leader. Megan Herman

Eboni Akpan Zook
I like the cohort experience because, throughout my program, I take classes with nearly the same group of peers with whom I started. As we are familiar with each other, we are able to dig deeper into controversial topics and take risks in sharing our thoughts and experiences as educators. Eboni Akpan Zook
