This reception also provides students with the opportunity to sign up for our Students Together Are Reaching Success (STARS) program, a signature department program. Students who choose to participate, will:
• Be paired with upper-class peer mentors, who will help them find a place in the Loyola community and help them to get to know the Chicago area. Mentors will also work with students to develop their personal, academic, social and cultural experiences through programming and tutoring.
• Develop leadership skills and learn about research opportunities.
• Become eligible to apply for financial scholarships of up to $1000, to help off-set tuition costs.
