Reservists/Guardsmen
Are you a Loyola student currently serving in the Reserves or National Guard? Loyola has an institutional policy that protects you from unexcused absences in your coursework due to military training. Please see the language of the policy below:
Loyola University Chicago allows students participating in required military duties to be excused from class and/or other student-based responsibilities (including graduate assistantships). Military duties covered under this policy include but are not limited to military deployment, required annual military training, ROTC activities and civilian deployments in support of federal operations. For service members holding Reserve and National Guard status, weekend duty (drill) requirements should not interfere with normal school schedules. However, if a situation arises that requires absence from class due to duty/drill requirements, this absence can also be excused if the required absence is verified by the commanding officer or other affiliated Guard leader.
In order to comply with this policy, please follow these instructions:
- Fill out the form to the best of your ability.
- Secure confirmation from your command (name, signature, & date).
- Email to veterans@luc.edu for confirmation from an MVSS representative.
- Distribute to your instructors for that term.
