Evening and Weekend Courses

Flexibility to Fit with Your Schedule

Life is busy. We get it. That’s why the School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCPS) at Loyola University Chicago offers online courses and transparent scheduling options. 

With an earnest commitment to your academic success and a sincere respect for your responsibilities beyond the classroom, we provide flexible courses that fit the realities of contemporary lives, including both synchronous (scheduled) and asynchronous (on your own time) components. Before enrolling in a course, for instance, you will know how many, if any, synchronous meetings you are required to attend for any given class and if those will occur on evenings or weekends.

“With Loyola’s approach to help adult learners and flexible hours, you will get through the program with ease and confidence.” Faye Chambers ’16

Online

Fully online classes can consist of synchronous and asynchronous components. Synchronous courses meet live online at a designated date and time with teachers presenting via video or audio and students participating either via chat or audio. Asynchronous means there is independent coursework to complete within a certain time frame but students are not required to be online at any specific day or time.

Evening

Online courses with synchronous meetings held in the evening will meet 6-9pm CST. These courses will be scheduled Monday through Thursday. The number of synchronous meetings can vary from two to eight meetings within an 8-week session.

Weekend

Online courses with synchronous meetings held on Saturday will meet 9am-Noon. The number of synchronous meetings can vary from two to eight meetings within an 8-week session.
