Televisions
In an effort to keep up with changing student needs, Penn College no longer offers a cable a package to on-campus residents. This decision was made after surveying students' actual usage rates of, and satisfaction with, the cable service being offered. The College is instead focusing on making sure there adequate Wi-Fi capabilities in the residence halls to accommodate students' streaming needs through the device of their choosing. In light of this, students who wish to bring a television will need a smart TV or will need to purchase an appropriate device to allow for streaming.
Fire/personal property insurance
While your belongings may already be covered under another plan and there is no requirement to carry theft/fire insurance, you may want to consider one of the companies that offer this protection to college students. Two such companies are National Student Services Incorporated and Arthur J. Gallagher & Company. Penn College does not endorse or have any connection with the companies listed. We provide this information to you as a convenience.
NOTE: Students who do not pay their tuition and fees by the College's established tuition deadline may be removed from housing at the College's discretion.
