In June 2021, a team of Villanova, Drexel and Rutgers students will be among 16 teams of graduate and undergraduate students from across the country to present their deep space mission concepts directly to NASA and aerospace industry leaders.

There's No Place Like CASA

Since Villanova’s Center for Access, Success and Achievement opened its doors, hundreds of Villanovans have found a home away from home. CASA creates a sense of belonging among the students and staff who form deep bonds over tutoring sessions, counseling, celebrations and more.

Serving Those Who Serve

Building upon its long history of opening doors to veterans since World War II, Villanova is preparing to unveil a dedicated physical space they can call their own. This fall, the University will open the Prince Family Veterans Resource Center in the lower level of Vasey Hall.

When you give to Villanova—whether it’s the Villanova Annual Fund, undergraduate research, student organizations or more—you are supporting the work that inspires our students to ignite change wherever they go.
