Daily News | As the Cabrini community reels from its closure announcement, other Catholic colleges woo its students
Matt Campbell drove to Cabrini University this week just to sit near the lacrosse fields and the track, beloved spaces of his student athlete days.
For local Catholic schools, many of which also have had enrollment struggles exacerbated by the pandemic, Cabrini’s misfortune could be their gain, lending a much needed boost in the form of students. And it comes as some of those colleges are contemplating their own path forward. La Salle promised Cabrini students an “expedited review process without fees or essay requirements,” “a Cabrini transfer award and net tuition match,” and special visitation days for Cabrini students.
Deanne H. D’Emilio, president of Gwynedd Mercy University in Montgomery County, who noted her school’s similar mission and programs, said: “We want to help them navigate this process and make it as seamless as possible.”
