Multicultural Awareness Program (MAP)
MAP is designed to assist first-year ALANA students in acclimating to campus life at Loyola. Specific objectives of the program are academic enhancement, intercultural and identity exploration, social adjustment, and service learning.

- Meet members of their first-year class as well as other students via team building activities

MAP Navigators
Through shared wisdom and experiences, MAP Navigators guide participants through their first days of college life. As previous participants in MAP, Navigators will faciliate small group discussions, will lead teambuilding activities, and will lead students on a navigational tour of campus (including showing participants where their classes will be held).
MAP Navigators for the 2025 Pre-Fall have been selected and are excited to engage with the incoming MAP participants.
