 Prior to their first semester at Villanova, students participate in a pre-college summer program:
- English
- Reading
- Mathematics
- Science
- Critical Thinking
The science and mathematics components advance according to the students'
progress. The English component is a comprehensive program consisting of:
- Word Processing
- Critical Thinking
- Freshman English Course
The Freshmen English Course is offered for 3 credits as well as a grade. During the "pre-college program", both classroom instruction and personal conferences with instructors remedy some of the difficulties many students encounter during their first semester of college. The counseling and conferences with faculty members tend to alleviate student apprehension and fears associated with attending college.
