BELLE AIR YEARBOOK
Since 1922, the Belle Air Yearbook has captured the many faces and life stories of students and the University. We proudly continue the tradition of commemorating the journeys the Villanova community embarks on each year.
The Belle Air Yearbook has won numerous awards, including honors from the Printing Industries of America, Columbia Scholastic Press Association, and the Associated Collegiate Press.
Our Mission
We strive to create an exceptional book each year—one that not only serves as a record for students and the University but something that captivates and tells an engaging story through pictures and articles.
We are in the process of recruiting staff members for the 2023-24 academic year! If you are interested in joining, please email us.
Book An Appointment
To ensure a spot in the Belle Air Yearbook, you must book a portrait sitting session with our photography company, Lauren Studios. We do not accept portraits from any other sources. There is a $5 sitting fee to have your photo taken for the yearbook. You are not required to purchase any photo packages to have your portrait in the yearbook.
Go to laurenstudios.com and use Villanova’s school code (Nova2024) to schedule your portrait. Portraits are taken in Garey Hall by appointment only.
Important Note: There will be appointments available for students currently studying abroad in the beginning of the spring semester.
How to Select Senior Portraits
Students will be able to view their proofs online and choose which portrait they would like in the yearbook.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email belleairyearbook@villanova.edu.
Celebrate Your Student’s Graduation
Commemorate your student's college achievements by purchasing a senior congratulatory in the 2023-2024 edition of the Belle Air Yearbook. Each ad will be created by our graphic design team to maintain consistency and professionalism.
