Penn State Description

If you’d like to attend Penn State, but aren’t able to ready to live on campus or travel to State College, the York facility is a great option for starting your higher education.

Students at the York campus are able to take classes towards well over 150 Penn State majors and then complete their degree at University Park or possibly another location. A few associate’s, bachelor’s, and graduate degrees can be completed at the York campus.

If you’re looking for challenging academics, Penn State York has an honors program that students can apply for. This is a great way to enhance your learning and potentially qualify for additional scholarships. Two-thirds of the admissions process for undergraduates, specifically high school seniors or recent graduates, consists of their grades and one third is based on their standardized test scores.

Tuition rates vary based on student level, campus, program, and other factors. Students are encouraged to speak to an admissions representative to determine their tuition costs.

Eligible students may qualify for financial aid to help cover part or all of their tuition costs. The York campus has financial aid representatives available to answer questions for students and assist them with completing the FAFSA and determining their eligibility.
