<p>" Very much seemed all of one type; kind of jockish confident guys who plan to get ahead. Women may be the same, not sure. "</p>
<p>My dd will be applying to Villanova next year (she is a junior).
We had one visit and will go back for another in summer along with an interview.</p>
<p>As a mother of a son and a daughter, I can tell you, I believe one of my MAIN jobs is to raise a confident child who plans to get ahead. My dd is very confident and perhaps it will be a good fit LOL</p>
<p>We did notice the lack of diversity and my d currently attends a private catholic HS that is not diverse either and we live in one of the city’s 5 boroughs.
Our tour guide did say some call it “vanillaNova” which I thought Admissions would CRINGE if they knew he told tour groups that.</p>
<p>Also, you cannot get too upset about a school your s got accepted to if you applied sight-unseen. If you visited and did your research and had this information before applying, I am sure you wouldn’t be in this situation. But, frankly, you really aren’t in any situation. Your son got accepted to a school that you didn’t visit or do basic research and upset. Thousands would be in your shoes if they had this approach. Good luck to you s. I am sure he will find the perfect fit for his next 4 years.</p>
