University Description

Loyola University Maryland, located in the vibrant city of Baltimore, is a prestigious, selective, comprehensive university with a strong residential liberal-arts-based undergraduate program and professional graduate programs at the master’s and doctoral levels. Founded in 1852, Loyola is one of 27 Jesuit colleges and universities in the United States and the first to bear the name of Saint Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus. Deeply committed to the Ignatian principles upon which it was founded, Loyola focuses on the care and education of the whole person — mind, body, and spirit — and its mission centers on preparing its students to learn, lead, and serve in a diverse and changing world.
The Wall Street Journal ranked Loyola No. 1 among midsized colleges in the South and No. 23 overall in the nation in its 2025 “Best Colleges” list. Loyola was also ranked No. 5 in the nation for career preparation, No. 22 in the nation for student experience, and No. 65 in the nation for impact on graduate salaries. U.S. News & World Report has ranked Loyola among the top 10 universities in the North Region for the past decade. Princeton Review named it one of the nation’s top institutions for undergraduate higher education and one of the best Mid-Atlantic colleges for 2025. It is among Washington Monthly’s top master’s universities nationally and is listed among the “best value” private colleges in Kiplinger’s Personal Finance.
Loyola University Maryland is proud to be recognized among the nation’s top institutions. From national rankings to regional accolades, our commitment to academic excellence, student success, and Jesuit values continues to earn praise from respected organizations and publications.
