No.1 arts and science college in Tamilnadu. No. 4th college in india. But this college admission was very tuff. Best placements are available here
Though my college experience has been good. Loyola doesnt care about their students. Im a student planning to do my higher studies abroad, the college management has held my marksheets and havent replied to a single e-mail written to them. Stating the corona virus, theyre playing football with Students lives. How come Im not allowed to get my marksheet? The government is favouring students who are planning to go abroad with vaccination, while the college acts irresponsible.
Most famous private college in Chennai started by Jesuit missionaries about a century ago in 1925 and has since grown into a multi-faceted group of institutions.Its not possible to write about Loyola in the map review, better to head for Wikipedia.
It is very good to be inside the Loyola campus it looks very good and cleaned
We can get some quality of education and can learn the essential skills useful for life.Life at Loyola is purely Bliss
Proud Alumni of Loyola 2016 - 2019 batch, an excellent educational institution with a lot of history and by providing a friendly learning environment. This is one of the reputed colleges in the world. Loyola is where I found myself. More than Education it gives an opportunity to create your own identity. The campus is vibrant during the evening. Amazing place to develop your personal skills. I found the place is maintained very well compared to many big colleges and universities. Loyola has a very big and beautiful campus with lots of trees there is a big walking space for hostelers. Loyola is very famous for some specialized courses like Viscom, 3D Animation and other regular UG & PG courses. Teachers here are very friendly and helpful who really help us not only in academics but also in other extra curricular activities. Loyola teaches not just books, it teaches life.
This college is paradise for me throughout my under graduation degree and I did B.sc computer science in this college 😅😅😅and since this college start from 1924, during British rule and now they run this college in efficient way. They provide all course but Visual communication is famous in this college .The college runs on both shifts (i.e) 1. General shift(8:15 AM - 1:15 PM)2. Afternoon shift (1:30 PM - 6:30 PM)The course fees also very affordable for every one and then campus drive also good. During my graduation I got placement in COGNIZANT.So finally this college gives me lot of friends, experience , knowledge ,funny moments and good memories.😍😍 This paradise for me😍😍😊
Been to this college for cultural invitation . Huge , lush green campus. There are three grounds. Age old church. LIBA is also located inside. Some buildings are new, some are old. This college is known for its extra curricular activities. Many celebrities and notable personalities are its alumni. Canteen is big , but cost is high.
Fully money minded waste college..

The place of happiness and love
Had my MBA classes here for pondicherry University distance education. They instill high discipline and insist on good attendance. Though one bad thing with them is their charging of high fees for low attendance.They have a good food court for students with various small food outlets.They have a bank branch and atm inside the campus. Also a majestic Catholic Church is inside the campus.They have big playgrounds for sports
Getting seat is difficult, but getting job is very easy, if studied hard

JOSEPH JEYAPATHY S.J. who envisaged the need for a Catholic School, for boys in Kodambakkam, Chennai. With a meagre number of 30 boys and 2 teachers, the pilgrimage started with Mrs. DIAZ as the First Headmistress, followed by Mrs. X. XAVIER. By 1976, the strength of the school rose to 150, advancing from UKG to I, II & III stds, under the leadership of Mr. M.SAMIDORAI, as Headmaster and Mrs. PHILOMENA CHELLIAH as Asst. Headmistress, whose Yeomen and dedicated service, we remember with gratitude.In 1982, the primary school was upgraded into a high school by Rev. Fr. M.S. SAVARIRAJ S.J., became the Second Correspondent of the High School. The credit of the construction of the first floor in the “VIANNEY BLOCK” goes to Rev. Fr. M.ACROKIASAMY, S.J., who was the succeeding correspondent and it was during the period of Rev. Fr. V.S. RAJU, S.J., in 1988 that the school was transmuted into diocesan School.Rev. Fr. M.S.

During his tenure; 1988-95 the school building was expanded to the second and third floors, in the year 1989 and the status of school was elevated to higher secondary, with enhanced infrastructure.The school faced a metamorphosis in every department of management with the dynamic Correspondent and Educationist, Rev. Fr. ABRAHAM KOTTOOPARAMPIL in 1995.The next Correspondent Rev. Fr. C.C. AMBROSE, an enterprising idealist, contributed his skill and multitudinous talents and transformed this school campus into a welcoming ambience of study and he constituted many academic and civil developments. A multipurpose gallery was built to accommodate 250 children.Our former Correspondent Rev. Fr. F.J.X. EUCHARIST, who steers the wheel of Loyola on safe waters. Our school was branded “Hi-Tech” with the launch of Smart Classes, the use of SMS to alert the parents and installation of Camera Surveillance in and around the class rooms to monitor the students.
