A.P. Credit Scores

<p>I can't find the required scores in order to recieve credit for AP exams for VSB. I found the list for Liberal Arts majors, but im a business major. </p>

<p>Anyone know where I can find these? Anyone have a link or anything? Thanks.</p>

<p>Anyone? I would like as well .. I would expect them to be similar to what the Liberal Arts Majors need, can you post a link to those?</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>thanks 10chars</p>

<p>Can some one post the link for Liberal Arts? I spent at least 20 minutes trying to track it down. Found a lot of information but not what I needed! Thanks!</p>

<p>its already posted...the liberal arts handbook is the enchiridion... look under the matriculation requirements tab on the side bar... good luck... APs are very helpful at nova- I came in with 25 credits. 30 is a sophomore... gives you a nice jump...</p>

<p>Thanks BrownEyedBeauty. I will look up the AP stuff right now. Any insight into dorms? I guess you can't pick the specific dorm right? Also, if you are interested in a sorority, when do they rush? I went to a bigger school with 24 sororities and my D will be at VU next year and I was just curious about it since there are fewer sororities maybe rush is less impersonal. Do most girls get into a sorority or are there a lot that don't make it because of the smaller size of the group?</p>

<p>No problem... To answer your questions:
dorms- No you can't pick perse, but certain buildings house learning communities, so by applying to them you are in fact picking your building. I am in one now- the leadership experience and would definitely recommend it. Its housed in St. Monica's, which I personally feel is the best building for freshmen to live in. Katherine is also good (and also houses learning communites) Caughlin is the all girls dorm. Stanford houses the largest ammount of freshmen, and it arguably the most popular one. Then there a few others that are not located on South campus (such as O'Dwyer, Simpson and Deleury) Its all kinda of based on the atmosphere your daughter is looking for.</p>

<p>rush/sororities: I rushed this past year and was just initiated into my sorority. I feel as if it was the best decision I have made thus far at Villanova. Around 33% of girls are in a sorority at Nova. It is it not necessary by any means to rush a sorority but I feel as if it has added so much to my college experience. </p>

<p>However, rushing at Villanova is very interesting. All girls interested in joining a sorority come back from winter break a week early. Each girl is placed in a group of 8-10 other girls, each with their own recruitment counselor to help guide them though the week. During that week, the girls go through 4 rounds. The first round, which last for 2 days, the girls meet with all 9 sororities on campus. After she meets with all of them, she lists her top 6 that she would like to go back to and each sorority makes a list of girls they want to invite back. 2nd round girls go back to at most 6 sororities (it could be less) and hear about their philanthrophies. Then the next day they hopefully go back to their top 4 sororities for the 3rd round. 4th round is Pref round and the girls hopefully meet with their top 2 sororities... its a really special night where you even get to see a sorority ritual. That night you pick which one out of the two you would most like to recieve a bid from. The sorority ranks which girls they would like to have in their sorority (they can only accept so many). Then they next day you recieve your bid, which you can either accept or reject.</p>

<p>I'm not going to lie the process is super stressful... waiting to hear if the sorority you like wants you back, and then dealing with the rejection if you don't is not fun. Some of the times the conversations were a little superficial, but towards the end, you definitely have already made connections with some of the girls. I did know some girls who were unhappy with the sororities they were asked back to and decided not to finish recruitment, which was their choice. But everyone I know who actually stuck it out, as cliche as it sounds, ended up exactly where they were supposed to be and are very happy. Very few girls who went through the entire process did not get a bid... it just not might have been to the one they wanted. In the end, I found that week totally worth it, because I came out of it with a bunch of sisters!</p>

<p>Hope that answers all of your questions... if you have any others feel free to ask! Either here or in PM or something...</p>
