Life at Saint Vincent

Finding Home at Saint Vincent

We’re here to answer your questions  from questions about residence halls and campus spaces to where to go when you need help and, most importantly, what's on the menu, we have the answers. While nearly 70 percent of our students choose to live on campus, our commuter students are hardly missing out on any of the fun. Campus Living

A Community Where You'll Always Belong

Whether it’s accounting or swing dancing, Spanish or Habitat for Humanity, engineering or “Pizza and Politics,” Saint Vincent has something for you. Maybe it’s the Student Government Association that interests you, or maybe it's pawing and viposting in a fencing match. Or, maybe it's joining your friends at a lecture; concert; or one of the many fun events, parties, or mystery trips scheduled by our award-winning Activities Programming Board. Whatever it is, you'll find your people and your passion. Join and Serve

Stay Active at Any Level

You don’t need to be a varsity athlete to live an active lifestyle. Our students take Yoga, Zumba and other fitness classes. You can also participate in club sports like Men’s Ice Hockey, SVC Cheerleading, SVC Equestrian Team, Saint Vincent Rugby, Ultimate Frisbee and our latest addition, Men's Bowling. Or choose from a variety of intramural sports including:

  • basketball
  • billiards
  • dodgeball
  • flag football
  • soccer
  • softball
  • street hockey
  • volleyball
  • weightlifting
