Penn State Scranton serves traditional and non-traditional students of all ages and backgrounds who, despite their diversity, have deep roots in Lackawanna County and Northeastern Pennsylvania.

They choose our campus because we are close to their family, friends, homes, and workplaces. They like the personal attention, welcoming environment, the fact that Penn State Scranton offers day, evening and online classes, and that our faculty and staff know them by name. The student housing, a private development, is located across the street from the campus providing quality living accommodations and convenience.
