What if a student decides to take a course that has not been approved by Loyola?
Any course, whether it is for a student’s major, minor, core, or non-departmental elective, must receive departmental approval before students can take it abroad. Any course that is taken without prior departmental approval will not transfer back to Loyola. Each program’s director will help students select approved courses for their program, and seek additional course approvals when necessary. Please note that courses submitted for departmental approval are not guaranteed to be approved, and should not be taken unless the approval has been finalized.
