[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]. One of the things that gives Catholic college campuses a different vibe than a lot of other privates IMO is not the influence of religion, which is waning, but the lack of Greek life.[/quote] Greek life is huge at Villanova. I thought it would be a good reach for my kid but he was turned off by that.[/quote] We were surprised by that as well. Over 30%-much higher than non Jesuit schools DC was looking into. The frat parties are held off campus - so something else to consider. Typically on campus frats are a bit safer since the school has more oversight. Fordham is right below Villanova without Greek life. Fairfield in CT is another option.[/quote] There is another Jesuit university in Philadelphia - St. Joseph’s University. It is a much easier admit (70% acceptance rate) but there are a lot of familial overlaps between the two universities, such as one kid at Villi and two at SJU, alumni of Villi w kid at SJU, etc. [/quote]
