Welcome to Penn State Altoona! We are delighted to welcome you to the Penn State Altoona family and to provide support and information as your student makes the transition from high school to college. Please use the menu links to find the information from the Division of Student Affairs that is relevant to you and your student.
The mission of the Division of Student Affairs at Penn State Altoona is to provide students with the services and developmental opportunities that will challenge and support their academic experiences, enhance the quality of their lives, and prepare them to function successfully as servant leaders within a diverse, multicultural, and international world. This is a much easier mission to meet if students opt-in to participate! Our services are for all students, regardless of where they live, and at any time throughout the year.
