Where to go around campus

Cabrini is in a great location as a college, but you might not enjoy it as much until your sophomore year. Most freshmen usually live on campus in Xavier, Woodcrest and even some live in East because the school picks for you.

Sophomore year, you get to pick where you live.

You have all of the houses on campus or East Residence Hall; most sophomores move off campus at this time. Junior and senior year you can live off campus or in the Cabrini Apartments Complex.

My freshman year I lived in Xavier and absolutely hated it, but made great friends.

Sophomore year I lived in the houses, which was house four, with 15 random girls and liked it a lot better then the dorms.

My junior year, I decided to move off campus and it was the best decision of my life. I would recommend

all sophomores to move off campus and not wait until your junior year like I did.

Cabrini does not allow freshmen to have cars on campus.

They do have transportation though for freshmen and other students without a car, the Cabrini shuttle.

Cabrini runs a shuttle service connecting with the Radnor stops for the Septa/Speed line, Wal-Mart and the King of Prussia Mall. At night, Public Safety operates the Lancaster Loop. Students can connect to the train station and travel into Philadelphia or spend time in Wayne. In Wayne there are restaurants, cafés and stores like Wawa and CVS. The shuttle is free, no charge required.

Do you love to shop? Well we are only a a 10-minute drive from the second largest mall in America. They have all the stores you can think of and even more. Cabrini is also located in a great area for food. Chipotle, Panera, Frozen

Yogurt and Starbucks are all very close to Cabrini. There is a great movie theater as well also located in Wayne and one in KOP. If students are 21 and older, there are many great places to go out around Cabrini. The Fox and the Hound holds a drink special, for two dollar beers on Tuesdays. Landmark always holds a special for two dollar Coors Light and Yuengling along with two dollar mixed drinks from nine to midnight. Manayunk is also about 20 minutes from school and has a great strip of bars. No one encourages drinking and driving, but the closest train station is about three minutes from our school location.At first, I hated Cabrini College, but as the years went on, I made great friends while also realizing what I really want to do with my life. Cabrini is a great school, not too big and not too small. Students also really have a great connection with the teachers as well. The teachers want to see you be successful and not fail.
