Loyola’s Office of Scholarships and Grants connects students with external scholarships, private grants, and donor-funded awards to help students bridge funding gaps and achieve their academic goals. The office can help students set up a profile on Scholarship Universe to get matched with relevant funding opportunities, and our team can meet with students one-on-one to develop personalized strategies to help increase the affordability of college.
The Office of Scholarships and Grants focuses on helping students find and secure funding beyond traditional financial aid, such as external scholarships, private grants, and institutional awards. In contrast, the Office of Financial Aid primarily manages federal, state, and institutional aid programs, including the FAFSA process, student loans, and compliance with regulatory requirements. Together, both offices support college affordability, but with distinct roles and expertise.
All current, incoming and admitted students have access to the Scholarship Universe platform via their Loyola Single Sign On (SSO).
Once you log into your SSO, look for the button that says “Scholarship Universe” in your Apps Dashboard.
If you need help logging into your Single Sign On, check out this step-by-step guide or contact the IT Help Desk by emailing support@wholesalegaslogs.com from your LOYNO email.
