Cabrini, a private Catholic school, is located just two miles from Villanova near Philadelphia.

A joint news was issued June 23, 2023, by the presidents of both Catholic schools - Helen Drinan, president of Cabrini University; and the Rev. Peter Donohue, president of Villanova.

Despite efforts to improve revenue streams, and changes to the leadership and academic ranks, Cabrini’s operating deficit remained insurmountable. With all other possible options exhausted and having determined that they must conclude their operations, Cabrini University initiated discussions with Villanova around a plan that would preserve Cabrini’s legacy and mission and honor the original intention for the Cabrini campus to promote opportunities in Catholic education.

According to the agreement, Cabrini said it will continue with the 2023-24 school year for the freshman, sophomore and junior classes and will “see its class of 2024 through to graduation with a robust set of course offerings and a focus on celebrating its history, mission, ministry, and legacy.”
