Potential Student Looking for Information

Hi!

I am looking at potentially attending grad school for psychology at this school and need some additional information.

I am physically disabled and a part-time wheelchair user and have ADHD. I am also LGBTQ+. How physically accessible is the campus? How good is the Disability Support Office, and how accommodating do professors tend to be? How safe is this campus and the surrounding area for LGBTQ+ people?

Thanks!

Recommend core history courses

Looking to cap off my spring schedule with one more class. I have Macroeconomics, The Art of reading(Messina), Applied Calc, and intro to the universe. I figure I’ve already taken Theology, Philosophy, and Spanish 104 this semester, might as well knock out my history requirement as well. Any recommendations on courses and professors? I’m an intended business major

MA151(Applied Calc) Professors

Any recommendations for professors for this course and what I should expect out of the class? I took AP Calc in high school and felt pretty comfortable.

Virtual Learning and Breakout Room Use in Undergraduate College/University Classes Survey

Hi r/Loyola!

We are a pair of computer science graduate students at Clemson University who are studying perceptions of teamwork in online undergraduate classroom breakout rooms.

We ran a pilot study earlier this year with our own student body and would like to expand it now to other 4-year, 2-year, and online colleges/universities.

We are hoping that by posting here, more students/professors from community/technical colleges and universities in the surrounding area will see this and we can expand our participant pool.

To participate in this survey you must be one of the following:

  • 18+ undergraduate student who was enrolled or currently enrolled in an a class offered via Zoom, Teams, or other video conferencing software
  • 18+ professor
  • 18+ graduate student teaching assistant or teacher of record

Survey Link: https://clemson.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_29z4pkHfVfYtyUS

This is an institutional IRB approved study. If there are any questions, please reach out via DMs.

Transfer student from Goucher College asking about Loyola

Hello, I was just accepted as a transfer student into Loyola. I will be coming from Goucher College, and will be a Junior in the fall. If there are any transfer students on this subreddit, how has your experience been (any student can answer this question)? From what I have read on niche and heard from people, Loyola is a fantastic college. However, as any transfer student thinks about, late integration into a college campus can sometimes be hard. Also, any early connections I can build would be appreciated--please reach out!

Loyola University Parking

I was curious if there is parking available anywhere for first-year undergrads. Is there anywhere around campus or the apartments that allow parking?

What is going on here?

I graduated in 2000. What is this about?

https://twitter.com/sommatruth/status/1382009381521395714?s=21

I guess I meant to ask if your campus experience was like this Melvin Somma? My daughter will be considering Loyola next year but not if the campus security is not safe.

But how important are they?

So I'm going to be a freshman next year and I saw that I have to take Math and Foreign Language placement tests. I'm stressed out about it. However, I don't plan on majoring in either field so I don't know how much I should care. So can someone tell me how much these tests actually matter, please.

Thank you <3

How can we improve this sub?

I’ll leave this post up for a good while to hopefully get a comment or two about how this subreddit can be made into a real resource for Loyola students, and hopefully to make it a little less dead.

If you have any ideas, please share. Thanks!

ELMBA Program

I'm thinking about applying to the ELMBA Program in the next year. Can anyone give me insight on the program? Was it worth it and did you like it? I'm attracted to the program because it's completed in one year and worth half the price of most MBA programs.

Anyone have feedback on the MS Data Science program?

I have decided that I will go for an MS in Data Science. Generically, it seems to be the best fit for me. It’s been awhile since I graduated with my BS in business admin, and since then I have worked for a large tech company as risk analyst. My work is only semi-technical, but I want more. My most driving factor is career security, followed closely by my love for providing analytics support to colleagues - I am pretty good with writing SQL queries for exceptions monitoring from compliance stand point. I also have my CAMS certification.

In tech reorgs happen often, and I’ve been lucky to be with my company for this long. I want to comfortably be able to transition to another if I were to be let go, either as Data analyst, BI, decisioning, compliance analytics or data scientist(I really this last one has a broad definition across different companies).

I feel like the MS in data science, on the analytics track at Loyola, is a great way to catch up on the stats, technical skills (sas/R/python/Hadoop) that a lot of companies require to even be considered for such a role. Especially good for someone not coming from a CS or other quantitative background.

My only outstanding question is how has the MS in data science served those who have gone through the program?

Does anyone know anyone that has gone through it, and what are they doing now?

Genuinely curious if you think we will return to campus in the fall due to COVID

Class of 2021 and anxious about this!

Imo we may do a mixed majors on and off campus. Those classes/majors with laboratory classes will be on campus while others will not. I’m premed with three labs next semester and I’d actually prefer to do online due to finances/safety precautions but idk!

Where are the off-campus haunts?

My son will be starting at Loyola in the fall. We wanted to get him some gift cards for places off-campus that students actually go to - convenience stores, restaurants, etc. Where do people (e.g., freshmen without cars) actually go? Looks like there is a Royal Farms nearby which seems kind of like a Wawa. Do people walk over to York Road mostly?

Statistics major- incoming freshman. Is Loyola worth it?

Also accepted to Case Western, Rutgers and University of Pittsburgh. Trying to decide if Loyola Stats is legit and worth the extra cash. One concern is the size..., how large are the stats classes? Research opportunities? Graduate students teaching classes? I don't know what I don't know...

Thanks!
