The student body at Villa Maria College is amazing. We’re not caught up in silly segregations based on popularity or hobbies. Everyone gets along—the atmosphere is very welcoming and warm. We are like a giant family.

We don`t always (ever 😅) lock our students in rooms, but when we do it`s because the Achieve staff put together an Escape Room as part of their end-of-year celebration 🗝️🔑 No pressure, but the time to beat is 6 minutes & 32 seconds! ⏱️
*No Vikings were actually locked in rooms, forced to stay, not allowed to leave, or otherwise harmed during this activity. In fact, they were fed a feast, awarded for their achievements & sent on their way - all by the end of campus hour. 🙃
