All for the greater glory of God!

When the last coursework is finished and the very final exams are over, the excitement on campus builds. Commencement is the culmination of years of best efforts and personal achievement. It is a celebration that families work towards for years and cherish for decades. Loyola University lifts up its graduates in a ceremony filled with pomp and circumstance flavored with New Orleans musical and cultural traditions. And every Loyola graduate has their moment to walk across the stage and receive their diploma directly—a traditional hallmark of Loyola’s commencement experience.
