Chicago Loop Campus

Westwood College – Chicago Loop Campus is conveniently located on North State Street in the heart of downtown Chicago, one of the nation’s major urban hubs. The campus is easily accessible via Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) and the Metra public transit systems.

Westwood is ideal for people looking to get the most out of their education. With classrooms housed in the historic Stevens Building in the center of Chicago's business district, students have easy access to numerous professional development opportunities.

The campus is near a variety of exciting Chicago attractions. It’s only two blocks from both Millennium Park and the Theater District, while great shopping is just steps away at stores like Macy's, Old Navy, H & M, Sears and Nordstrom Rack.  And it’s all within a couple of minutes of Chicago's Magnificent Mile and Water Tower.

There are plenty of cultural attractions nearby, too, including Chicago's Art Institute, the Shedd Aquarium and the Field Museum. Sears Tower is also close by, as are plenty of outdoor recreational options on Lake Michigan.
