Amazing connection between the school and students
By Father of Class of 2023 Daughter, From Toledo, Ohio
As a father who visited dozens of quality schools with my daughter, Villanova was different. There were many good schools - I don't want to insinuate that only Villanova is worth your time. Our experience with the school was special. The student body energy, the engaged faculty, and the vested and involved administration starting at the top with Father Peter. It was different and based on my daughters' experience so far - what we witnessed during the our visits was not "just a show" her experience has matched her expectations which is truly a blessing.

Academics, ethics, and achievement
By Blue island cat, From Virginia
A tight knit student body that provides a unique sense of belonging; professors encourage achievement, social awareness with a strong ethical foundation; it is very common for students to form close relationships with others on campus, and keep them for life. It can feel like a small school that delivers great success.

Perfect Balance - A True Community
By BJEllis, From Princeton, NJ
Villanova enjoys a unique blend of academic excellence and a spirit of togetherness. The campus is safely tucked away in the suburbs of Philadelphia and has been beautifully transformed in the last decade under the stewardship of Father Peter. Classes are small enough for students to receive personal attention, and the professors are excellent, accomplished, and available to students throughout their academic life. Villanova truly strives to create a sense of community and is highly successful in that endeavor. Students bond around countless activities and clubs, including the NCAA Champion basketball team and it's celebrity head coach, Jay Wright. Villanova is an experience like no other. You take the experience, the top notch education, and the friends you make with you for the rest of your life. - Alumni 95 and VU Parent 23
