REVIEWS
Read What Students Are SayingProfessors at Cabrini College do everything they can to help students succeed. There are plenty of resources, such as the library, writing center, and math resource center, available to students all the time. The campus is fairly small so students don't have a long walk from class to class.
Crystal from Newark, DE
I intend to be a student living off campus. The school is a catholic school and that suits me perfectly because, I am very religious and put the spiritual world high on my list of honors with gods and goddesses in mind. I think my priorities are in order at Cabrini and the education there, I have heard, is only a definite plus especially with military in mind.
Derrick from Philadelphia, PA
Cabrini College is a beautiful college with a lot of opportunities.
Current Student at Cabrini College
Cabrini College is truly an amazing college; it allows students to discover a broad spectrum of disciplines while staying true to the college's main theme: Social Justice. From the professors to the staff to the students, I have never been displeased with anyone on Cabrini's campus. An amazing school, it is worth looking into.
Caroline from Upper Darby, PA
If you are looking for a small, close knit school Cabrini is perfect. It is close to the city with the security of the suburbs. With the connections that I make here, I know that I will be successful in life.
Gabby from NJ
In college you have a lot more free time than you would think. They key to getting good grades and getting ahead is to use that free time wisely. First get your homework and studying done and then get active and join clubs!
Natasha from Philadelphia, PA
Make sure to attend classes (this goes for anywhere) because other wise you will not learn as much as you possibly can.
Elizabeth from Allentown, PA
Not only am I learning in the classroom, but I am learning to deal with real-life issues around campus and the local area.
