Complete Your Advising Survey
Work with your advisor to get your schedule.
Want to see what's in store for your first semester? Visit your Admissions Status Portal and complete the "Academic Advising and Involvement Interest Survey."
We'll use the information you provide to create a draft schedule of classes. Once you complete the survey, a faculty member in the department you've declared as your major will work one-on-one with you to fine-tune your schedule.
You can always schedule a meeting with one of our academic advisors if you have other questions to help you prepare for success at Loyola.
Complete Your Affordability Questionnaire
Student Financial Services is here to help.
We are here to help in every facet of your college experience — including how you pay for it. Our team at Student Financial Services will work one-on-one with your family to determine the best payment options for you.
You can start this process by completing the Affordability Questionnaire in your Admissions Status Portal.
Contact Student Financial Services for assistance by phone at 504-865-3337, by email at SFSCenter@loyno.edu, or by scheduling an appointment online.
Complete Your Health Requirements
Submit your immunization records and review your health insurance coverage.
Loyola and the state of Louisiana require all students to submit immunization documentation. Print the Proof of Immunization Compliance Form (available to download on this page) and have it completed and signed by your physician or treatment provider. All documentation should be submitted on the Loyola Public Health Portal.
Email immunization@loyno.edu for questions. All immunizations are due no later than January 15.
Submit Your ID Photo
Upload your headshot for your ID card.
Log into your Admissions Status Portal and upload your headshot in the "Upload Materials" section. Be sure to select "ID Photo" from the dropdown menu. We will use your photo to make your Loyola ID, which you will receive when you arrive on campus. Please submit your photo by December 10 for processing.
Photo Criteria
- Photos should reflect your current appearance—no sunglasses, hats, or head coverings (unless worn for religious purposes)
- Stand in front of a plain, light colored background and use a neutral face expression with both eyes open
- Place camera directly in front you: full face and shoulder tops should be visible
- Clear, color images that are oriented upright only with a high resolution JPEG format (most cell phone cameras can provide this)
- Photos taken of your driver's license, current school ID, passport or that feature another person in them will not be accepted
