We know this experience will be new and different for each of you. We are currently working on the plans for a Spring Welcome Weekend to meet the unique needs of each of our new Greyhounds. Below is some general information and we will continue to update this website as needed. Students should pay close attention to their Loyola email for the most updated and accurate orientation information.
