Undergraduate Financial Aid

Our financial aid team is dedicated to helping you navigate the application process and committed to making our Jesuit, private education affordable and accessible for all students.

We understand that funding your education requires a significant financial commitment from you and your family. We also know that applying for financial aid can be confusing and frustrating. We are here to help.

Approximately 99% of undergraduates are receiving some form of aid from federal, state, institutional, and private sources, and our average financial aid package for first time students is $45,720. You may discover that the actual out-of-pocket cost to attend Loyola is more affordable than you think.
