Adult Learner Programs is a tangible expression of Penn State’s commitment to providing comprehensive services for non-traditional undergraduate students. Whether you have been out of school for several years...  or if this is your first semester, we want adult learners to feel comfortable utilizing the campus resources that complement your academic, personal and career goals. We know this is a very exciting time and that it can also be a stressful time too. Balancing life, work and school can be challenging but it’s worth it. So remember, we are here for you and want you to be successful in all of your educational pursuits.

Adult Learner Engagement Survey - This is an opportunity to share your opinion and programming ideas for future Adult Learner events, activities and programs.

Adult Learner Voices Showcase - Take a moment to complete your academic profile to help us understand and showcase the unique background and experiences that Adult Learners contribute to campus life. Your diverse aspirations and experiences will enhance the mosaic that is PennState. All submissions become a part of the University Park Collection and from time to time, the office of special populations may select various profiles to showcase.
