Where Do Our Graduates Go?
This is not an exhaustive list, but is meant to give students a general idea of the different programs or employment into which our students have been accepted.
Student Health Clubs
At Loyola, there are more than 85 student organizations. Within Pre-Health, there are 2 organizations you can join. These include Health Professions Organization (HPO) and the Minority Association of Pre-Medicine Students (MAPS). We encourage you to learn about these organizations and get involved. They offer various resources and mentorship to help students navigate the Pre-Health field.

Sociology Minor
For those who wish to pursue another area of study as their primary major, the curriculum of the sociology program can serve as an adaptable and attractive minor (22 credit hours), or even as a double major. Increasing numbers of students are combining their interests in this way, especially as it expands their skills and employability.
