-I had a thoroughly positive experience at Loyola. I found the quality of the education and the professors to be high. I enjoyed, and placed a high value on, the number of professors who were not full-time academics, but heavily involved in the current business world. For those who need to work (many of my peers), this program makes perfect sense.
