Penn College's first "summer" Open House brought 126 prospective students to campus on Friday, 14 of whom traveled from out-of-state (Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York). The majority are considering a Fall 2024 start or later; the remainder are looking at Fall 2023. Attendees could visit up to two academic areas and experience a variety of other aspects of campus life, from housing to Dining Services, to informative chats with faculty and staff. The next Open Houses are Saturday, June 24, and Saturday, July 29. Registration is required through the Admissions Office.
