Loyola University New Orleans

What is the cost of studying for a year at Loyola University New Orleans?

Loyola is a private university, so its reported full-time undergraduate tuition does not differ by Louisiana residency. In IPEDS 2024-25 figures, undergraduate tuition was $47,390 and required fees were $2,050. Together, those published charges totaled $49,440 before housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses.

• 2024-25 full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees: $49,440.
• Reported annual room and board charges: $15,180.
• Reported books and supplies allowance: $1,340.

Adding those three reported categories produces $65,960, but that is not a complete cost-of-attendance budget: transportation and personal expenses can add to the total, and housing choices vary. It should not be combined with tuition figures from another year as though they describe one annual bill.

Aid can materially change the amount a family pays. IPEDS 2024-25 data indicate that 99% of students received financial aid, and the reported average undergraduate grant award was $32,732 among recipients. Grants generally do not require repayment; loans do. For students in families earning $0-$48,000, the reported average net price was $21,956. Net price is an average after grant or scholarship aid, not a personalized quote. Applicants should review Loyola's current cost-of-attendance budget and their own aid offer, including the distinction between grants, work-study, and loans.

What are the work-study opportunities at Loyola University New Orleans?

Eligible Loyola students may be able to work while enrolled through Federal Work-Study or other part-time student jobs. Federal Work-Study is need-based aid awarded through the financial-aid process; an award establishes potential eligibility to earn wages but does not itself place a student in a job or pay the full award upfront.

Students can also seek employment outside Work-Study. Job availability, hours, and eligibility vary, so applicants planning to rely on earnings should distinguish a confirmed position from an aid offer. Loyola's career services include individual career counseling, résumé assistance, interview preparation, career-interest exploration, job fairs, and employer recruitment. Those services can support an internship or job search, but they are not verified employment outcomes or a substitute for checking a position's pay and schedule.
