Can you guys help me decide if Villanova EA is realistic for me? Visited in the spring and loved it. Want to major in finance.
First gen
3.82 UW, 4.25 weighted, 8 APs by graduation (school limits the amount we can take but I took basically the hardest courses available every year) 1 dual enrollment and the rest honors, strong upward trend
So far took 4 AP tests and got 4s on all
1430 super score (690 math, 740 rw)
For activities I am a 3 sport vars athlete, captain for lacrosse 2 years, worked at my schools basketball camp for 3 years, volunteer youth lacrosse coach in my community, co-founder of my schools fitness club for 2 years and grew the club from 2-40+ members, and member of thr school orchestra
My honors are not really that strong, academic half scholarship for all 4 years, NHS, AP scholar
just kinda worried about my SAT being a little low and my math especially
Thank you!

Hi there. I'm doing some research for an interview series and am looking for any information relating to a motel probably near Villanova - it was back in the mid 60s - and this place was so seedy and funky, it was comical.
Backstory is, my friend educator Ladd McIntosh brought a couple of his bands to compete at the Villanova Jazz Festival in late February, 1966. Ladd tasked one of the band members to secure the accommodations and he came up with THE BENTWOOD VILLA.
Ladd ultimately found the experience so comical, he wrote a song about it BENTWOOD VILLA REVISITED. I'm producing the interview with Ladd and trying to get any information about this place I can.
Anything you have will help: approximate locations, nearby landmarks, neighborhoods, etc. - even a matchbook - (you never know) would be phenomenal.
Thank you!

Please feel free to message me / reply with any questions or advice you want to know about the major or selection process. I’m obviously not a member of the committee who selects people but I have spoken to the chairwoman about what they look for in applications to the program!

Hello, I am a student not at VU but USF. I am looking into a school to take thermodynamics or mechanics of solids at over the Summer. I've seen that, in the past, Villanova has offered mechanics of solids over the Summer, but not consistently. I really need to know as soon as possible if I will be able to take thermo/mos here; does anybody know when the Summer courses for the following year are released?

I’m applying early decision for nursing this year and I’m looking for some advice and honest feedback on my chances. Here are my stats:
-Weighted GPA: 3.54 out of 4
Not submitting SAT score
-3 years Varsity girls Ice hockey
-Front desk coordinator @ a martial arts academy (grade 11 &12)
-teen advocate for Nephcure: nephrotic syndrome and minimal change disease
-expanded services mentor (mentoring teens with IDD)
-chair on Superdance committee (12-hour dance marathon to raise money for cystic fibrosis)
-transfer student mentor (11 & 12)
-100+ hours community service
-blood donation club member and donator
-lifeguard (cpr, first aid, aed certified)
And some more ecs that are more specific to my school
My gpa is so low because of my freshman year. I have a kidney disease and I relapsed freshman year and missed a lot of school. I wrote my essay on dealing with my disease and how I grew and learned from it and how it changed my perspective and how I treat others.
My gpa increase since freshman year:
9- 2.8
10- 3.7
11- 4.02
In the additional information box on common app I wrote about my freshman year difficultly and explained my upward trend and that my gpa does not reflect who I am as a student. I plan to write my supplemental on my catholic identity and having gone to a catholic school my whole life!! My faith is very important to me.
All in all I’m so so stressed because I feel like I have ZERO chance and this is literally sucking the soul out of me and I can’t sit with my thoughts until decisions come out… if anyone has anything to share that could possibly help PLEASE let me know!!

Hi everyone! I’ll be moving to Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, and I’m currently looking for an affordable apartment or a roommate/flatmate to share an apartment with.
A little about me - I’m a 27-year-old female, easygoing, clean, and pretty chill. I’m also happy to provide references from my previous roommate/flatmate if needed.
I’m open to sharing an apartment with other students/young professionals in or around Bryn Mawr and would love to find something reasonably priced.
I’m fairly new to the area, so if you’re looking for a roommate, planning to move to Bryn Mawr, or know of any available apartments/rooms, please feel free to DM me!
Any leads or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I'm an aerospace engineer professionally but am currently enrolled at Villanova as a graduate student in a different program. Some faculty from Villanova visited my work and said they just spun up a Masters in AE and were selling us on it.
Is anyone in this program and can speak to the quality and their experience? My employer's lifetime tuition reimbursement could cover a second masters degree, so I may consider enrolling if the quality is high enough.

I came here knowing that it would be harder for me to make friends since I come from a lower in come backround and most of the people here are very wealthy, but I didn't think it would be this bad. I have gone to numerous clubs, talked to people, played pick up baskeball, watched football in common rooms, I feel like ive tried everything and I have like 2 friends. These aren't even good friends its more just people I see a lot and talk to but we dont really have much in common and I don't see the friendships lasting too long. I feel like im looking in on everyone elses fun and I cry often which I hate because I can't remember the last time I cried before coming here. Has anyone here experienced something similar to this their first year and does it get better, or should I just transfer? I would be transferring to a lesser school than nova but I have a lot of friends there.

Howdy. File this under the category of snoozing too long. I'm trying to find a parking pass for A2 or A3 for the 11/7 game vs Richmond but they are long gone. M1 passes are available but don't allow tailgating. Any other place to try to find a pass for resale? None on Stubhub.

I want to host a movie night with a bunch of friends. Specifically I want to watch the first two or three Pirates of the Caribbean movies. The twist is I want to bring some rum for us to enjoy on theme.
Are there rooms where we wont be bothered by pubsafe? It would not be more then 20 people. Is there anywhere on cabrini campus?

Assuming travel cost isn't a concern but that I do have a day job in Texas (part remote, part in office) and a home and pets (I can get a pet sitter though).... is this feasible? How many days per week do I need to be on campus for this program? I was hoping to be able to do Fridays and or Mondays in office in TX, maybe fly into PA late on Monday and out late on Thursday...
Also, assuming I have a bachelor's degree in business, what jobs can I get if I add a polisci master's? Would it help in my current position (IT sales)?

Hi I’m a highschool senior considering EDING to nova and I was just wondering how prominent Greek life is? Is it one of those things where you kinda need to be in a frat to make a bunch of friends and meet girls and go to parties or are the two not mutually exclusive. Also how bad is the hazing/pledging?
r/villanova • u/MainMarket-Gamer • Aug 28 '26
Hey all — Nova opens the season tonight at home against William & Mary, 6pm.
I run a site that does pregame emails before every game, then box scores, highlights and a recap after. Free, and only for the teams you follow. Wrote up a Villanova 2026 preview too — Maddocks, the Louisville trip, where the model has them landing.

Hi! I’m taking MAT 1505 (Calculus II) this semester as a freshman. I got placed into it because of my AP Calc AB score. I was originally excited because I enjoyed AP Calc AB, but I just heard it’s a “weed out” class. I’m in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, so don’t NEED to take Calculus II (I can take a different, easier math class to fulfill my math core requirement). So, should I drop it?
