Military-affiliated Student Testimonials

As an adult learner with a busy schedule, Loyola student and Army Veteran Shantineq Gatlin (BA in Management, ’24) has found that the robust support system and community for military affiliated students offered by Loyola’s School of Continuing & Professional Studies (SCPS) has played an instrumental role in preparing her for success. 

For Jesus Ramos (School Psychology PhD, ’23), education and service have always been central to his value system. As a Marine Corps Veteran with a background in psychology and a passion for mentorship, Ramos found a natural home in Loyola’s School Psychology PhD program, which has allowed him to lay a foundation for a career that builds on his passions. "Loyola’s Veterans’ office, and especially [Director of Military Veteran Student Services] Alex Pirila, were really supportive. Alex would meet with me and say, let’s figure out the GI Bill. This is what you need to do, this is what you’re missing, this is who you can call. He poured so much effort, time, and resources into supporting me."
