Campus Living

Just about every day of the year, you’ll find good reasons to experience campus that feels like home. You can join one (or more!) of more than 50 student organizations, or take in lectures, comedians, parties, concerts and events planned by the Activities Programming Board.

For the students who form the Saint Vincent community, the Robert S. Carey Student Center serves as a place to catch up with friends, work out, pray, and unwind. The center includes a fitness center, swimming pool, student lounge, bookstore, grab-and-go eatery, gym, performing arts center, art gallery, and our student chapel as well as a nondenominational prayer room.

Saint Vincent College offers 25 varsity sports and more than a dozen club and intramural sports.

Get to know the Laurel Highlands that surround the campus: Paddle a canoe, hike a mountain or go cross-country skiing. You can do all this and more through the College’s Highlanders Outdoor Explorers Program, which takes advantage of the many opportunities for adventure right in our backyard of the Laurel Highlands.

Community service is an important part of life here: About two-thirds of Saint Vincent students volunteer. Help spruce up campus, mentor inner-city kids or comfort AIDS patients in Brazil. Whatever you do, chances are you’ll be getting more out of it than you give.
