A Smart Investment that Pays Dividends 

A Penn State degree pays dividends across a lifetime of success. In fact, the Wall Street Journal recently ranked Penn State graduates #1 in workforce preparation. On top of that, Penn State students who attend or start at a Commonwealth Campus like Penn State Schuylkill can find a great cost savings on their education expenses. For example, students can save approximately $20,000 over two years by starting at Schuylkill versus starting directly at University Park.
