I've never been happier than when I am at Villanova. I know I seem like some admissions officers trying to boost the rating but I truly mean it. It is the best community ever and the academics are awesome. I recommend the school to everyone!

People and professors are awesome. Everyone is so nice and helpful. Campus is really nice and not too big. Basketball games are fun. So many connections with businesses for internships and jobs. Love being a part of Nova Nation and wouldn't want to go anywhere else!

This is very safe place you cannot imagine. So you could be very concentrated on what you wanna do. There are lots of gyms and very good machines. Besides, you could do research and internship if you want.

Dear Reader, as a student who is not from the Jersey and the greater Philadelphia area you will most likely not enjoy this school because you will get bored and then you'll rethink "maybe it is not that bad" then before you know it you spend three years here, your grades are poor, and heading no where.

Avoid this school, except you are business major student, and you are rich. Tuition and living expenses are extremely expensive!!!($81,000) ( the food, the dorm room and the internet are so awful)
