They are very different schools. Rural vs urban, D1 vs D3, undergrad enrollment 2900 vs 4400, school spirit thats connected with D1 sports at Providence where Gettysburg is typical D3, Greek life vs no Greek life. Providence has Catholic roots which are still evident. Providence has a 2 year Western Civilizations course that’s required. Gettysburg has that typical LAC feel to it. Very historic areas around Gettysburg. I think both campuses are pretty but the areas surrounding the schools are very different.

Gettysburg requires students to live on campus all 4 years, Providence requires the first 3 years. I’ve heard the food is better at Gettysburg.
