Loyola University New Orleans Official Update September 4, 2005

Loyola University New Orleans is closed for this semester and will reopen in January 2006. Our 27 sister Jesuit institutions have generously offered support by making arrangements to accept Loyola students this fall semester. Arrangements with LSU in Baton Rouge have also been made for our students to attend LSU for the fall semester. First year law students will be able to attend the University of Houston. Second and third year students will be able to take courses at institutions listed on the Association of American Law Schools web site at www.aals.org/
