Make Yourself At Home
Part of life at Penn State is where you eat, where you sleep, and who you hang out with. It's what we call "Residence Life." Think of it as one of the aspects of Penn State that turns a campus into a community. Your community. Whether you're living on or off campus, we cultivate that sense of community through spaces on campus where students can meet and mingle. So, meet the neighbors. Grab a cup of coffee or a bite to eat. And make yourself at home.
