<p>I’m not sure who the program is offered to, but when I was accepted i was offered a study abroad trip to london next spring and next summer, (2012). So i think Villanova has a great study abroad program. And if you go into one of the Learning Communities Freshman year, like Leadership the most popular one, I think you will find the students to be much more diverse and have a better fit. I did an overnight visit on candidates day and we stayed in a sophomore learning community. It was very diverse and most of them were in a freshman learning community. I would really consider that in your decision, but you need to get your deposit in ASAP to avoid being roomed in triples, which I hear is a growing problem. Good luck and I hope to see you at Nova next year… PS I also was waitlisted at BC, don’t even bother waiting the campus looks like a construction site and there “year 3 of a ten year plan” of rennovation, including destroying buildings. I don’t know about you, but i’d rather learn at the Number 7 school in great facilities then at the number 16 (i think) school in a tent. I would wait on Stern though</p>
