“Loyola focuses the medical school experience on learning more about who YOU are as a person and how you can become a better person, and of course, physician. I feel extremely humanized here and it shows me that it is ok to be 100% myself.”
Angelika KwakClass of 2024
“Stritch prepares its students to become excellent physicians and dedicated members of their communities. Our training extends beyond medical knowledge and focuses on preparing us to live lives for others.”
Parker StrideClass of 2021

Enrique Blanco MartinezClass of 2022
“I chose Stritch because of its mission and commitment to underserved communities. Its sense of community and belongingness has been evident from my interview day, to Second Look, to the JUMP Retreat. I feel very supported and I am confident that Stritch will not only mold me into a great clinician, but also a better human.”
