Excellence Elevated.
Welcome to the Scott Bieler Center for Academic Excellence.
Support is Critical.
Our mission is to transform lives by empowering students and providing them with pathways to a brighter future. Villa Maria was the first local college to provide free books and supplies for all our students, as well as the first local college to offer a program specifically for students with learning differences. This type of intensive support is critical for ensuring our students achieve success.

Opportunity is Everywhere
We are currently in the design phase of an exciting new major project, the transformation of our library into a state-of-the-art Academic Commons. The Bieler Center for Academic Excellence will be a contemporary space where students can receive the critical academic, social, and emotional support they need to be successful. It will be a signature space for our students, faculty, and staff. The counterpart to our recently renovated Russell J. Salvatore Commons, the Bieler Center for Academic Excellence will be the cornerstone for student success.
Join Us in Creating the Central Resource for Academic Success.
Over the past decade, Villa Maria College has been an innovator in student success initiatives. With a leadership gift by Scott Bieler, we are elevating student achievement by unifying (academic and student) support services to help current and future Villa Vikings achieve their dreams.
