On behalf of the entire Villanova University community, it is my pleasure to welcome you. Through this website you will find information about the University, our mission and heritage, and the unique programs we have for students, parents, alumni, and friends.

We are a Catholic and Augustinian University with a well-rounded academic curriculum and a commitment to the greater good. Saint Augustine believed in the intrinsic connection between the mind and the heart, between truth and love. At Villanova, we celebrate this relationship through a passionate pursuit of knowledge and service to others. This commitment to Veritas, Unitas, Caritas – to Truth, Unity, Love – serves as a living embodiment of the University’s mission and creates exciting opportunities for learning, growth, and personal development.

Since 1842, Villanova has been committed to providing a unique educational experience and preparing graduates for successful careers and rewarding lives. Today, the campus is energized by high-quality faculty and by the more than 10,000 students who are pursuing degrees in over 40 diverse academic programs.
