Schedule a Group Info Session or Interview

It’s easy and wonderful to visit Villanova. You can call ahead of time and get in with a group tour with Villanova’s Blue Key Society or you can just show up and there will be someone in admissions willing to talk to you about just how great and unique Villanova is. Rain or shine, Villanova will leave an impression because of its beautiful campus and energetic, outgoing students.

Campus Tours

Villanova has the Blue Key Society, which is an organization of students that voluntarily give tours. Blue Key Society is very highly regarded on campus and students have to go through an application and interview process to even be chosen to participate, which shows just how many students want to show off their school. Therefore, these tours are given by the best and brightest of Villanova and are an excellent representation of the University.

Prospective Weekend

Open Houses A great way to familiarize yourself with the campus and see if this is the right school for you is to come to one of the open houses. Each college holds an open house in the fall where you can listen to administrators, teachers, and students from each of the colleges. Important Tip Even with the open house, tours, and information sessions, you may not receive an accurate portrayal of what Villanova has to offer. Don’t be afraid to walk up to a random student around the Oreo or Connelly Center and ask if you could talk about the school for a few minutes. Most of the students would be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. It also offers a more accurate portrait of the school.
