Hope Chicago Scholars
“We know that a college degree is the most powerful tool one can use to maximize career opportunities. That’s why we aim to change the game and redefine the college experience for our scholars in collaboration with our partner institutions.” Hope Chicago's Chief Executive Officer Dr. Janice Jackson.
The Loyola/Hope Chicago partnership stems from Hope Chicago’s 2022 promise to provide debt-free higher education to 4,000 students and one parent or guardian from five CPS high schools on the South, Southwest, and West Sides. With future cohorts in progress, this partnership expands access to Loyola’s world-class Jesuit Catholic education.
Hope Scholars receive comprehensive support, including tuition, room and board, and dedicated campus resources. This fall, Loyola will welcome its 4th Cohort of Hope Chicago Scholars, also known as "Goal Getters."
Program Highlights Include:
- Hope Chicago Summer Bridge Program
- Regular meetings with Hope Chicago Academic Advisor and Program Coordinator
- Professional and Co-Curricular Workshops
- Wellness Seminars
- Loyola 360 Retreats
- Service Opportunities
- Community building activities in Chicago
- On-Campus Employment Assistance
- Student Leadership Enrichments
- Access to individualized tutoring resources
Loyola is proud to partner with Hope Chicago in redefining the college experience for students and their families.
