Obtaining Proof of Eligibility
To obtain certification of your eligibility for the TEP benefit, request that the TEP Administrator at your home institution notify Ó£»¨¶¯Âþ, via the , that you are eligible and wish to be considered for the benefit.
Applying for Admission to Ó£»¨¶¯Âþ
You must be accepted for admission before you can be considered for the TEP benefit. TEP certification does not automatically qualify you for admission, nor does an offer of admission mean that a space will be automatically available in Loyola’s TEP Program. If receiving the TEP award is a determining factor in your enrollment decision, we'd recommend you do not apply Early Decision. Instead, please consider applying via the non-binding, Early Action and Regular Decision processes.
Spaces in the Tuition Exchange Program are limited and are awarded on a competitive basis considering your high school academic record. The determination of your eligibility for a space in the Tuition Exchange Program will not be made until you are certified as eligible and accepted for admission. The TEP certification application must be received by Loyola no later than December 15, 2024.
If you are accepted for admission, you will be notified of your eligibility for the TEP benefit no later than April 1, 2025. If you are not offered the benefit, your name will be placed on a waiting list. Students who choose to attend Loyola without the TEP benefit will automatically be considered for the benefit in subsequent years. Please be aware, however, we are unable to guarantee the TEP award to currently enrolled students given budgetary restrictions in any given year.
Applying for Financial Aid
It is recommended, but not required, that you apply for financial aid. It is possible that a financial aid offer may make it financially possible to attend Loyola University if a space in the Tuition Exchange Program is not available.
Submitting your deposit

The deposit deadline is May 1, 2025, so it is important for you to submit your deposit as soon as you make the decision to attend Loyola. Receipt of the TEP benefit does not automatically guarantee a class or housing space. The $750 deposit is non-refundable unless class and housing space is not available.

The benefit does not cover tuition for part-time, summer or graduate course enrollment, nor does it cover fees, room, meal or book expenses.
