Villanova University - Drug Scene

Quick Stats

College Prowler Take

Drug use on campus is hardly a visible presence, and most students who do drugs aren’t doing them daily. You can occasionally run into softer drugs somewhere on campus, but, again, this is not a daily occurrence. Of course, there are a few kids who just sit around and smoke up all day, but it will require a search to find them. The drug of choice on campus by far is alcohol, as it is the most common and most accessible. Villanova is a dry campus and the police are pretty strict, so the use of any type of drug can become problematic if you are not intelligent about it.

Villanova has about the same amount of drug use as your average college or high school, and there is no pressure to get involved. While there are rumors that there is a heavy cocaine-using population on campus, there are few occasions where people are seen using it. Getting your hands on drugs isn’t overly complicated. If you are looking for drugs, they are not hard to find, but it is not something prevalent on campus. If you don’t do it, no one is going to bother you.

Pot is probably the largest drug... Pot is probably the largest drug on campus. It’s cheap and easy to get. However, Villanova is a wealthy school with lots of rich kids, so harder drugs can be found. If you’re looking for drugs, you’d probably be able to find them, if you’re not, then you’ll probably only notice some marijuana. 12345 Drug Scene Report
