The School of Social Work at Loyola University Chicago has been educating students to become leaders in the social work profession since 1914. We provide a transformative education for practice-informed social work.  The school advances rich and diverse knowledge grounded in empowering work with clients and organizations, promoting social and environmental justice.

What do the funds support?

Your gift to Social Work Scholarships or Pay4Placement Scholarships directly supports School of Social Work students and their education. Social Work Scholarships assists students in need of tuition assistance. 

Pay4Placement is a national movement in social work to provide financial support to students working unpaid internships. Because many students work in addition to their academic obligations, completing a social work internship can be a financial burden. Contributing to the Pay4Placement Scholarship will directly support Loyola School of Social Work students.
