Loyola University Chicago and the School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCPS) excel at providing an accessible, high-quality education to a diverse community of adult learners in the Chicago area and, increasingly, across the U.S. SCPS’s success is rooted in a sincere respect for the adult learner and a profound understanding for the responsibilities students hold beyond the classroom, such as full-time employment and family obligations. 

The School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCPS) at Loyola University Chicago understands the cost of higher education stimulates anxiety in many adult learners and, in some cases, even hinders them from returning to the classroom. Through a combination of financial aid, scholarships, community partnerships, and knowledge-based credit, SCPS creates opportunities for students to pursue their academic goals free of economic barriers.

Building upon Loyola’s commitment to educational outreach and inclusiveness, SCPS designs its programs with flexibility and relevance top of mind. Whether online, evening, or weekend, SCPS’s transparent scheduling options present students the freedom to learn in the way and on the timeline best suiting them.
