World-class academics
At Villanova, you aren't just a number in a lecture hall. With an average class size of 23, our faculty will know your name and your ambitions. Whether you are joining the renowned Villanova School of Business, the College of Engineering, or exploring the liberal arts, you’ll find a challenging environment rooted in Augustinian values. This means we focus not just on intellectual growth, but on ethical leadership and service to others.
Life as a Wildcat
Worried about fitting in as a transfer? Don’t be. Villanova is famous for its "Communitas"—a welcoming spirit that you’ll feel the moment you step onto our beautiful suburban Philadelphia campus. We have a dedicated Transfer Orientation program led by former transfer students who know exactly what you're going through. The Villanova community is dedicated to providing a personalized experience that fosters every student’s unique intellectual and spiritual well-being. As part of their education, students are encouraged to enrich their lives by working for those in need. Through academic and service programs, students use their knowledge, skills, and compassion to better the world around them.
Beyond the classroom, you can dive into over 300 student groups, participate in meaningful service projects, or cheer on our legendary Wildcat sports teams.
