“Choosing to start my college career at a small
campus was one of the best decisions I ever made.
The adjustment was easier because the campus and
town were much like the small town I grew up in. I
made some of my best friends in my first two years,
including members of the faculty and administration.
I wouldn’t trade my campus experience for anything
in the world.”

“I was attracted to the small class sizes, as well as the
one-on-one attention that I could get from my professors. I
immediately fell in love with the campus and being involved
with a lot of organizations, especially Thon.
“Starting at a campus and finishing at University Park provided the best of both worlds. I was going to Penn State, I
was getting that Penn State degree, but I was also having
one-on-one interaction with my teachers any time of the day
that I wanted.
“The transition to University Park was easy because my
friends came with me, and I already had a huge group of
friends up here. That’s the great thing about a school the
size of Penn State—you’re never alone.”
