Campuses
Your new home away from home should make you feel relaxed and comfortable, whether you live in a residence hall or commute from home.
At PennWest University, you have the opportunity to choose from three distinct campuses, each nestled in a picturesque, vibrant town. Whether you prefer a serene lakeside community or a campus along a sprawling river bend, PennWest offers the perfect setting for your academic journey.
Although each campus is uniquely different, they share a common goal of offering you the best educational experience and a fulfilling campus life, both in and out of the classroom.
As a Pennsylvania Western University student, you’ll benefit from a dynamic learning experience with access to courses taught by professors across all three campuses. You’ll also enjoy robust shared student support programs and resources, clubs and organizations, athletics, intramurals and so much more. Discover what each of our campuses has to offer!
