A high school lying on the outskirts of downtown Chicago. Though students typically travel in from affluent suburbs, they like to think going to Ignatius gives them "street-cred" and makes them "city-smart," which it most certainly does not. While these sheltered students try to shed the soft, pampered reputation they have received, the fact remains that there are chandeliers in the cafeteria and the buildings are nicer than many on collegiate campuses.

Try as they might, no Ignatius athletic teams seem to be able to have consistent success. Though their parents always by their children top-of-the-line equipment, athleticism is rare and has lead to Ignatius' reputation as a"guaranteed win." This is evident in the annual Fenwick/Ignatius football game where Ignatius will usually lose by a deficit of at least 35 points. Even as Ignatius boasts itself as an "academic powerhouse," their Math and Science teams consistently prove inferior to other prep schools, including bitter rival Fenwick, who also outshines them on standardized test scores.

Known for having below average-looking women, the social scene is also lacking. A typical weekend for any Ignatius student usually consists of stealing Bacardi Razz or Malibu Rum from one's parents and sneaking it into a party in a water bottle. After each consuming the equivalent of two or three shots, students generally become intoxicated and resort to bizarre homoerotic behavior including, but not limited to: applying body glitter, dancing to Jonas Brothers, wearing black leather, watching reruns of Ellen, etc. This metrosexuality is also also exemplified by the clothing worn by students, including brands such as American Eagle, Abercrombie, Hollister, etc. Many Ignatius boys like using hair gel to mold a faux-hawk or spend 20 minutes on creating that "just-rolled-out-of-bed look." Pooka shells, Kanye West sunglasses, Birkenstocks, stud earrings, destroyed/paint-stained jeans, designer graphic tees, and many other types of extremely lame clothing are staples in the daily Ignatius outfit.

Yes, while the douchebags of Ignatius sit smugly in their ivory towers, the rest of Chicagoland, and the country, has a laugh at their expense.
Mother: Where should our son go, St. Ignatius College Prep or the prestigious Fenwick High School?

Father: All those dumbasses at Ignatius are queens that suck at sports, I'm not sending my son to school with those cocksuckers.

Get the St. Ignatius College Prep mug.
A school in the heart of Chicago that prides itself on it's high standards when it comes to acceptance. Disregard that most of the families of the kids that go there are huge donors to the school and have a ton of legacy there, so that even if they get a fifty on the entrance exam there's no way they can't be accepted. Often regarded a "party school" it's wonderful if you're interested solely on doing copius amounts of pot and heroine and having sex with strangers at rich suburbenite kid's parties. Not so great if you're interested in surrounding yourself with people interested in learning and their futures. There are about 10 kids in each class that are, and they're not too popular. Just your run of the mill ridiculous catholic high school bullshit.
Cathy: St. Ignatius College Prep! you must be pretty smart to be going there!
Kevin: Haha yeah, it's pretty chill, I got herpes there though from this one chick.

Also known as the most swag, athletic, smexy school in nyc, many other schools want to be like us. Sometimes, as we walk down the street people walk up and beg to know our secrets, but we don’t tell them. Although we might not get the best grades, the absolute godliness that is associated with our school makes up for it.
Damn did you see those dapper, well clothed St Ignatius Loyola School gentlemen walk down the street? Damn I wish I could be like then but I know I can’t.
