Every dollar contributed to the local campus during the campaign will remain here for local projects. The primary focus will be to increase the availability of student scholarships and student aid. The private portion of the campaign has already been underway for nearly three years, starting July 1, 1996. The public phase will enable all Penn State alumni and friends the chance to participate in shaping the university's future.
Private support holds the greatest opportunity to respond to the needs of our changing region.
Therefore, increasing our endowment to support our students is the primary goal for Penn State Shenango. Eighty percent of the campus' students receive some kind of financial aid.
