Loyola's GSB Programs – Learn in the Heart of the City
The Loyola University Chicago part-time MBA and specialty-masters programs are a much sought-after choice for professionals, both nationally and internationally. Our campus is centrally located in one of America’s most dynamic centers of commerce – vibrant downtown Chicago.
Situated just off North Michigan Avenue, on Loyola's Water Tower Campus, the Graduate School of Business is just minutes from Lake Shore Drive and only steps away from the CTA Red Line's Chicago Avenue stop. Students who commute from the suburbs can either choose to drive or use Metra, Pace, or the CTA.
Housing is available for graduate, professional, and upper-class students in our Baumhart Residence Hall at the Water Tower Campus. Many grad students choose to live in the surrounding neighborhoods—in areas such as the Gold Coast, Old Town, Lincoln Park, Wrigleyville, Wicker Park, and Roscoe Village, to cite a few.
