Entry Requirements:

  • Official standardized test scores (also required for consideration of a merit scholarship) for the SAT and/or ACT exam.
  • Proof of English proficiency is also required from either the TOEFL or IELTS tests (minimum TOEFL iBT score of 79, minimum IELTS score of 6.5).

  • A Personal Statement: From the Loyola University New Orleans website “This is all about you. The personal statement is your chance to speak directly to the admissions committee – outside the required essay. It’s your chance to go beyond filling out forms to show us how you’d fit into the Loyola community. While it’s optional, we encourage you to make this statement. We’re looking not just for your academic leadership, but also your community involvement, personal achievement and, truly, who you are as a person. If you’ve experienced any personal hardships during high school, this is a chance to tell us and to explain your circumstances to the committee.”
  • A 500 word essay with the same essay topics as the Common Application
  • Students must submit a photocopy of their current VISA, or if they do not currently hold a VISA, submit the picture page of their passport or national identification.
