Dear students,

As you make your summer plans, if you find yourselves wanting to be on campus, please know that there are summer stipends for Loyola College of Arts and Sciences students in particular sets of experiences.

Students who are eligible to apply for this funding fall into one of the following categories: being a summer student employee in a LCAS department (including WLOY and Greycomm), Hauber Fellow, Social Science Summer Research Fellow, Social Science Student Research Assistant, Center for Humanities Summer Student Research Assistant, Center for the Humanities Summer Fellow, Center for Humanities Aperio Summer Researcher, Center for the Humanities Summer Study Program Stipend Recipient, Center for the Humanities Summer Internship Stipend Recipient, Center for the Humanities Aperio Summer Researcher, Peace and Justice Studies Academic and Creative Summer Grant Recipient, Catholic Studies Student Summer Research Grant Recipient , or a student completing an Internship (or field experience) for credit within LCAS. You’ll recall that we finalized a range of students’ experiences are part of this grant, and some but not all of those students already qualify for 50% discounted summer funding by virtue of their status through SAS (Hauber, Kolvenbach, CFH Summer research fellow, and SS summer research fellow).

As you calculate the days/weeks that you would be in need of summer housing on campus, please be aware that Residence Life will NOT be supporting student move-ins on weekends or Holidays, including University days off such as Memorial day (5/26-5/29), Independence day (7/3-4), and Juneteenth (6/19), for example.

Please send all applications to Julieta Guerra (jguerra@loyola.edu) by Friday, March 31^st by 5pm. The application is attached to this email.

Associate Dean Barry will promptly review those applications that evening and reach out within a week or so thereafter. Residence Life has asked that all those receiving discounted housing and for anyone to receive priority in getting housing must apply for housing no later than Wednesday, April 12^th. Ensure that your students’ complete their Summer 2023 Housing Application on the RoomRez Housing Portal. Instructions for students have already been sent. Student Life may deny any application that does not meet their criteria (see below for criteria).
