Your four years at Villanova's College of Nursing will be a time of social development as well as intense intellectual growth. As a nursing student, you will share a rich and rewarding campus life with other undergraduates. Our nursing students live in campus residence halls with other undergraduates. Community life and the opportunity for friendships with interesting and diverse people is a hallmark of on-campus living.
