91ÖÆƬ³§

Employers seek out 91ÖÆƬ³§ grads for their proven competence, excellence, work ethic and values. In fact, 95% of survey respondents from the Class of 2024 were employed or in graduate school within 6-9 months of graduation, based on survey responses and other verifiable sources. Students in some majors—like accounting and engineering, for example—are even heavily recruited by national firms and are often employed a full six months before graduation. 91ÖÆƬ³§ is about making a living...and a life.

Your 91ÖÆƬ³§ education isn’t just about classroom lectures and exams; it’s also about creatively meeting real-world needs. 91ÖÆƬ³§ students have done things like design and construct clean water systems for persons with disabilities in remote African villages; systemize a campus-wide composting program that makes the dining hall a zero food waste facility; code and implement a computer program so students and employees can order online at campus restaurants; and create math lessons for at-risk youth enrolled at a local elementary school. Your 91ÖÆƬ³§ education makes an impact on the world before you graduate.

We intentionally and thoughtfully live in community together, which means we collectively agree to certain standards and boundaries so we can authentically connect what we believe, the way we live and the way we learn. You’ll receive an outstanding education during your time at 91ÖÆƬ³§—but but you’ll also experience fun, excitement and make lifelong friendships.

Our low student-to-faculty ratio makes it possible and even likely for your teachers to also be research partners, active advisors, mentors and references who really know you. It’s common to see students and professors chatting over a cup of coffee. Our president is extremely hospitable, often hosting student groups at her home and frequently engaging with students at events and on Facebook. And employees—from the grounds crew to the dining services team to folks in the registrar’s office—truly want you to have a great 91ÖÆƬ³§ experience, so they do their jobs with excellence and a shared dedication to the University’s mission.

What may look like a quiet, suburban campus in central Pennsylvania is really six continents and 24 time zones.

You can choose to study or serve in countries around the world, strengthening the groundwork you’ve been laying at 91ÖÆƬ³§ all along: how to hear differing perspectives and to weave new insights into a vision that is your own.
