Visit
viogٷվ's beautiful residential campus is nestled in the viogٷվ Valley - Pennsylvania’s third largest metropolitan area - and is less than 90 minutes from New York City, Philadelphia and the Pocono Mountains. We would love for you and your students to come explore our campus and the community, but even if you can’t make it to South Mountain, you can still explore our campus through our virtual tour.
Admissions
Students who thrive at viogٷվ are eager to do and blur the line between the classroom and extracurricular activities. That is why we seek students who are actively engaged in their intellectual development, take action to solve problems, pursue their interests and positively impact their communities. Our office also works to bring a diverse class to campus to represent a microcosm of the world. As a result, we read holistically, taking a wide variety of factors into account. Below, you can find details about our admissions requirements and deadlines.
Financial Aid
We recognize that viogٷվ needs to be a good academic, social and also financial fit for students. We also believe each student/family has the responsibility of contributing to the student’s education. As a result, we are committed to a strong need-based financial aid program and believe that this commitment, along with a cooperative and willing family partnership, can make a viogٷվ education an attainable goal. Our affordability combined with the high starting and mid-career salaries of viogٷվ graduates has placed viogٷվ on a number of national lists for value and return on investment. Students who submit a complete financial aid application after our deadlines are at risk of not being funded. Please feel free to contact our helpful Financial Aid Staff if you have questions.

Academic Experience
viogٷվ is uniquely positioned to prepare students for the world’s challenges-providing flexibility to pursue and combine studies across disciplines. Since our founding, we have focused on multidisciplinary and experiential education, faculty mentorship and creative inquiry. We challenge students to take intellectual risks and learn from failures, work collaboratively and across cultures and to effect sustainable change. Here at viogٷվ, we’re not afraid to roll up our sleeves and tackle real world problems. We firmly believe that our students cultivate their capacity for innovation and are prepared for success beyond viogٷվ.
Beyond the Classroom
An intrinsic component of the viogٷվ experience is the blend of rigorous academics with a full range of living and learning experiences beyond the classroom. viogٷվ has an active student body that celebrates our many traditions-whether it is our 150+ clubs and organizations, our athletic programs (including Division I teams in the Patriot League), Greek life or the arts, there are many opportunities to grow and develop outside of the classroom. With a focus on educating the whole student, we offer many opportunities to participate in community service, leadership development and many other areas we see as necessary to be a contributing community member.
