WYOMISSING, Pa. — Visiting a college campus is the best way for students to get a feel for whether it’s the right place for them. High school seniors and their families can do just that through Penn State Berks summer admissions events: Spend a Summer Evening from 6 to 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 8, or Spend a Summer Morning Information Session from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Aug. 1.

The July 8 program includes a welcome and a brief overview from the Office of Admissions, followed by a one-hour tour of the campus with student Lion Ambassadors.

The Aug. 1 information session will feature an admissions and financial aid presentation. Attendees will learn about Penn State’s more than 275 degree programs, including the 19 baccalaureate and associate degrees that can be completed entirely at Penn State Berks.

Attendees also will receive in-depth admissions/application instructions, and learn about academic research and internship opportunities, financial aid, student activities and NCAA Division III athletics. After the presentation, students and families will have an opportunity to take a full campus tour with student Lion Ambassadors, and at the end of the tour, they will be invited to enjoy Penn State’s famous Berkey Creamery ice cream.

Students who participate receive a Penn State Application Fee Waiver. Registration is required and space may be limited, so reserve your spot early.
