Loyola University Chicago Orientation
The entire Loyola community is excited to welcome you to campus for Loyola University Chicago Orientation (LUCO)!
First-year and Transfer students, Orientation will be your first opportunity to connect with your future classmates and begin building community at Loyola. For family members and guests, Orientation will serve as a time for you to learn about your student's future academic and developmental growth.
At Orientation, students will learn how to navigate the many resources and services in place to assist them with their academic careers, meet with an academic advisor, and register for their classes. LUCO will introduce students to the values and traditions that will enrich their Loyola Experience from now through graduation. In order to best prepare for Orientation, please review our Before Orientation page.
