Arcadia University is a census-designated place[3] located in Cheltenham Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. It is located just off campus at Arcadia University and off Pennsylvania Route 309. As of the 2010 census[4] the population was 595 residents.

With 10,438 people per square mile, Arcadia University is the most densely populated census-designated place in Montgomery County and 33rd most densely populated census-designated place in the U.S. It is one of only two places in Montgomery County that has over 10,000 people per square mile (the other is Conshohocken).
