Student Activities
Undergraduate Program
The Quinlan School of Business, Undergraduate Programs office offers a number of co-curricular events and opportunities for our students. We believe that learning should continue outside of the classroom. We encourage students to get involved and make the most out of your Quinlan experience.
Case Competition - Put your business knowledge to the test at the Quinlan Case Competition. Open to undergraduate business students, the competition encourages students to work together as a team to address a real-world business situation—and present their solution to a panel of judges.Visit the Case Competition website for more information.

Real Time with Alumni - Real Time with Alumni is an opportunity for students to meet individually with a Loyola Alumnus. During a 30-minute pre-scheduled meeting, an alum will be available to discuss his or her career path and their experiences in the business world. The goal of these one-on-one meetings is to provide students the opportunity to talk with a successful alum. Whether the conversation is about classes, picking a major or what you should do with your life our alums want to talk to you.
