Security is terrible and really not existent. Counseling services does bare minimum. Dorms are horrible. RA's do ZERO. Campus is dark at night. Heavy Muslim population. Scary to walk at night. Little if any access to off campus ammenities
Christian
At first I thought I wasn't going like being here, but my attitude has really changed. I have made new friends and the campus is not real huge that I can get lost; just going to classes. The professor try there best to help student as much as they can. Cabrini has so many resources to help you achieve!
Rosbeiris
Cabrini is a school filled with positive energy and a school with a calming aura. The school is known for being Catholic and holding a reputation of being the best at anything they set their minds to. The staff, students, are always there for you whenever you need them. It is one of those schools that you find yourself feeling comfortable wherever you go. The class sizes are appropriate to the point that you find yourself knowing the students, and the professors fairly well.
Jacob
I think it's a fantastic school. It's a small, private area that definitely is not a party school. It's no Ivy League, but it's inexpensive and provides a great education for the price. All around very good choice for post education. While I am only a visitor, this is definitely one of my most locked in schools yet.
Samantha
Cabrini University is a place for life long friends. Your majors are small and your classmates become family. Sports are huge and we live for Saturday games. The University is growing and so is the diversity and immigrants who are now belong welcomed with open arms. Cabrini gives many opportunities for students to join clubs, do missionary work, gain academic achievement and meet lifelong faculty members who will do whatever to see you succeed.

Everyone easily gets along with one another and it is a nice environment to be around in. When I first went, i really liked how everyone was very welcoming and warm hearted. The school is small and that is one thing I also like about the school. Many things and reasons made me enroll to this school and I am excited to be a part of it.

waste of time

Cabrini is terrible, nothing but lies and more lies. they love to lie about how much stuff there is to do on the weekends, but there is literally nothing. Professors are great, they want you to succeed. Public safety is a complete joke, nothing but wannabe cops. I do not feel safe on this campus and it seems like P.S. does not care. I think a 5-year old can do a better job patrolling the campus and making sure their residents are safe. The food is absolute garbage, none of the workers care about the students. Its literally eating crap on a plate. DO NOT GO TO CABRINI, ITS A TRAP!!!!!

Here at my time at Cabrini, I have grew as a person and as a student. Cabrini is a small net place that I call my home away from home. I have shared memories, laughs, good times, and bad times at this school but I love it here. Even though it gets dark here really fast and your RA will take forever to answer their door, it's still a fun place to be. I am really glad I picked Cabrini because it not only has my major here but also my memories here as well. Everything at this school is not perfect but it sure is a place where I can always go to when I feel like I have no where else to go. Cabrini may not be for everyone but it's for me because I have some great friends, great classes, and overall great community here on campus.

Cabrini is a wonderful college for everyone to meet new people. The campus is very diverse and students are very active with events. The students are able to contact their instructors easily and are able to meet up with upperclassmen, faculty, and staff on day-to-day basis without appointments. The class sizes are fairly small and the students can work hands-on with their instructors.
Kayla
My school is pretty nice and the campus is big but not enough to get lost in. The faculty is helpful and the education is rigorous yet appreciated. There's a lot of resources around and opportunities. I'm a commuter whose an hour and some change away by public transportation and there are definitely days where I wonder why I didn't just go to a closer school. Then I sit in my Philosophy class or I vent to my academic adviser or I meet a new person and I realize that my school is an adjustment worth conquering.
Paige
I'm a Freshman at Cabrini. It's a very pretty campus. The campus buildings are near each other. The cafeteria has a variety of food, it's never the same! We have an amazing gym. Everyone is friendly and making friends is not difficult! The class sizes are small, so the professors get to know you! The school offers many help resources for students to use. There are many clubs to get involved in and to get to know others. Cabrini is a very welcoming school. I'm glad I attend this school!

Cabrini University is a school located in Radnor, PA. It is surrounded by woods, neighborhoods, and the town of Wayne. Wayne is a five minute drive from the school, and features many restaurants and shops. Cabrini is a generally small school, so there is a big chance you will know mostly everyone who attends. The teachers are very kind and intelligent. They care about your education and will do anything to help a student stay on track. Overall, Cabrini is a small school with a top notch education system.
Danielle
It's a small college but that's what makes it so great. Almost everyone knows everyone and there are always people willing to help. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. The professors are always available for assistance, the campus is beautiful no matter the season, and there are so many opportunities to get involved. Highly recommend anyone to apply.
The fall 2020 acceptance rate for Cabrini University is 71%. That means, out of _____ applications received in 2020, _____ students were offered admission.
What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
FInd one that you can call home, have fun but dont go to class drunk, you can not do homework better wiith a buzz, just be responsible and rember why you are there ...
Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!
I would definitely suggest coming to Cabrini is you want to be a communications major, business major, or education major. Those are some of the most sought after majors here. If you want the small campus feeling and feeling of a family, CABRINI is the place to come!
Get involved! The best way to stay in school is to get involved and not to go home on the weekends. Get involved with something you feel comfortable with and a group of people that interest you. You can have your dorm friends (your social life) and an education, career life. They are two very different things.
Cabrini is a small school right off the main line. It's a small, close-knit campus, where everyone knows everyone else. Our new president cares about the students and tries to partake in activities with them on a regular basis. Opportunities are endless at Cabrini; whether it's starting a club/sport you would like to see on campus or holding an event for people to be aware of a new cause. I feel that professors actually care and want you to succeed. You're known as a name and a face, not as a number.
At Cabrini, class sizes are very small with only 15 to 20 students per class. You are one-on-one time with professors and are able to get to know them beyond a professional, academic level. Professors strive for you to succeed and most will go out of their way to help you (even giving their home/cell numbers so you can call them anytime!).
What are the most popular student activities/groups?
There is soooo much to do both on campus and off campus. We are 5 minutes from the train station that takes you into the city. We are also just a couple of minutes from Wayne which is a cute little shopping district with your cafes and small places to eat along the way. There are many trips and study abroad options both during the semester and over breaks. There are no fraternities or sororities on Cabrini's campus. There are many campus activities both during the week and on the weekends. There is bingo a couple of times a month and they give away prizes such as digital cameras, gift cards, PS2 and ipods. There is casino night once in a while and they do take trips to different place like Broadway to see a show. A lot of the activities are free but some like the Broadway trip do come with a little price. Never too much though that students can't afford it.
What is the stereotype of students at your school?
Some of the stereotypes of Cabrini students are:
-everyone can get accepted to Cabrini,
-the only major at Cabrini is 'Education',
-Cabrini students are all wealthy,
-It is an all girls, Catholic, conservative college,
-Lacrosse is the only competitive sport
-Everyone is religious,
-That there is no diversity
One of the best things about this school is the warm, welcoming and caring environment in and out of classes. The faculty is part of the community.
Also, the school community is conducive to learning academically, socially, and professionally.
What kind of person should not attend this school?
The type of person that should attend Cabrini College should want to be in a small environment with lots of trees. The person should also be friendly and respectful of their peers and professors. A person that really doesn't have any problems with transportation or money.
Is the stereotype of students at your school accurate?
To an extent. We are no longer an all girls school - we are co-ed, however, there are more girls than guys. The school comes with a hefty price tag, however, we are all not rich kids. Most of us will be paying loans until we're 90 years old. Cabrini is a predominantly white campus, however, there are other races on campus as well.
