LIVE A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A VILLANOVAN

As a Catholic Augustinian institution, Villanova University celebrates diversity as an essential component of the teaching and learning experience as well as the ongoing intellectual, social, and spiritual development of every member of the Villanova community. Founded as an institution to educate the children of Irish immigrants, it is in our heritage to uplift the voices of those who have been historically excluded from higher education. 

Nova Up Close provides a unique opportunity for high school seniors from minoritized racial and ethnic identities to immerse themselves in our community for a two-day on-campus event on October 20-21, 2022. Attendees will be paired with a current Villanovan, attend class, experience residence and dining halls, engage in dialogue surrounding identity work and so much more.

Villanova University will sponsor the costs of travel and attendance for students from Eastern Pennsylvania, New York City, New Jersey, Delaware and Metropolitan D.C. area for this program.

Interested students should complete the application and submit their official high school transcript by October 1, 2022 to gotovu@villanova.edu.
