Ah, finally some data grounded in reality! As a Georgetown MBA alumna, I interpret the Verbal SAT scores as showing scant difference between the academic chops of the average Villanova and Seton Hall undergrad liberal arts students. As pp shared, the majority of Villi students score slightly higher than Seton Hall, with 690 - 740 as compared to the New Jersey school’s 620 - 700.

The real difference is in the math scores, and this is likely a reflection of the wealthier Villi applicants’ families paying for more math tutoring than Seton Halls, as well as Villi’s much stronger student placement into banking, finance, and consulting.

Seton Hall has an excellent IR program, as well as very good preparation for law schools including the well respected Seton Hall Law School. (Villanova also has a strong law school, fwiw, but we are focusing on undergrad here). [/quote]
