Accepted and prospective students are invited to join staff from Housing & Food Services and Residence Life for an information session that will provide a snapshot of what it's like to live, learn, and make memories that last a lifetime in our on-campus residence halls. This session will include lots of photos of our two residence halls. Attendees will also learn the step-by-step process to securing a housing contract and meal plan.
"Should I Stay or Should I Go?" — May 20 at 6 p.m.
At Penn State Berks, students have the opportunity to start most of Penn State's 275+ academic majors in the 2+2 Plan, or they can stay all four years and graduate from Berks in one of our 20 baccalaureate degree programs. Berks students and alumni will share their personal experiences in the 2+2 Program and in Berks majors. Attendees will discover that Berks offers the best of both worlds, regardless of which academic path they choose.
Before the webinar, prospective students can review the Experience Penn State page to find additional online resources, answers to frequently asked questions and information about next steps in the admissions process.
