Scholars will be able to rent a room in Santa Clara Hall. Santa Clara offers apartment-style rooms, including full kitchens (refrigerator, stovetop, oven, and microwave) and private bathrooms.

Scholars can also independently arrange for off-campus living.
The Lake Shore Campus is surrounded by a large number of restaurant and grocery stores, and some housing options will have a kitchenette. Campus cafeterias will be available for participants for both single meals (price varies) and a 3-meal daily rate ($34.23 per day).
Those participants who live locally and wish to commute to Loyola each day are welcome to do so. On-campus parking is available for $7 per day.
WiFi access will be provided for all participants. Past participants have found it useful to bring their own laptop, Chromebook, or tablet to access readings, take notes, create materials for the Applications to Teaching sessions, or engage in other institute activities.
