As of May 3, 2023, the University received more than 1,160 deposits from first-year students, surpassing the goal for the incoming class by 100 deposits. The Class of 2027 is projected to be the third largest first-year class in Loyola history.

The class was yielded from a 5% larger applicant pool, contributing to a 7 percentage point reduction in admit rate. This increased selectivity led to the Class of 2027 having the highest average weighted high school GPA on record at 3.69.

The Class of 2027 hails from 34 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and 17 countries. International students make up 2% of the class, which would mark the largest incoming class of international students at Loyola in at least two decades.
