Hello,

Wondering about the acceptance rate for EA vs RD? Typically, they are similiar but ive read that Villanova defers most ea applicants? Is this true?

Thank you!

Hi -do students applying Ed 1 submit first quarter grades?

We did not two years ago.

Could someone explain to me what is happening with the Villanova Cabrini Campus, particularly for nursing students? It looks to be about 2 miles from the main campus. Will the entire nursing program be moving over there? We visited last spring, and it was not mentioned at all…

Interesting! Thanks for mentioning. You’ve probably seen this, but this site mentions “dedicated nursing simulation space” and lists Fitzpatrick College of Nursing Graduate Programs as one those to make this campus their new home. So maybe nursing undergrads stay on the main campus?

That’s what I am hoping to confirm. We toured the (main campus ) nursing building when we visited and it looked relatively new and well appointed. I can’t imagine it will go unused! I did see that dorms opening on the Cabrini campus are for sophomores and maybe juniors. It also looks like the new campus will be accompanied by an increase in enrollment…

Current parent but not nursing. My understanding is there will be graduate nursing programs on Cabrini, along with some other departments. Most sophomores (current freshmen) will live on Cabrini and the university will invest in more shuttles. I cannot imagine any juniors choosing to live there. And while I hear the current freshmen are mostly not thrilled about it, I think it will be ok since most will be in one place. They gave a whole presentation on Cabrini plans at parents weekend…but I didn’t go

They also recently acquired Rosemont college and I’m not sure what the plans are for that, but the location is better than Cabrini. It’s a little closer (1 mile) and a lot more walkable to the area students like to hang out. I don’t think that is opening until 2028.
