Saint Vincent College
Founded in 1846, Saint Vincent College is a private institution operated by Benedictine monks. The college combines Catholic and Benedictine tradition with a liberal arts and sciences curriculum. Rated as having “selective” admissions, the college is divided into four schools, each with its own Dean who works closely with students. Saint Vincent College has taken steps to become more sustainable by constructing new LEED Gold certified buildings, restoring water quality at the nearby Monastery Run, and operating a 50-acre Winnie Palmer Nature Reserve.

Average Rating
Saint Vincent is a rather quiet, rural college. The professors are generally pretty good and with the small class sizes it is easy to meet with professors on a regular basis. Overall, Saint Vincent is a good college and a good place to receive an education.
Student from Greensburg, PA
I think Saint Vincent is a 9 out of 10. It is a family here and the classes push you. I just wish there was more to do on and around campus.
