“I’ve always planned to go to Penn State. I’m a go-getter, so I enrolled in the Early College Program to start my future and get experience in college classes. Now, I’m comfortable on campus and I know what it takes to be successful at the college level. I look forward to coming every week. Penn State Fayette feels like home.” Maria Catalina, Southmoreland High School 2020
“I plan to go to Penn State Fayette because it’s close-to-home and more affordable than other schools in the region where I’d have to pay for room and board. The Early College Program was an opportunity for me to get a head start by taking classes like Effective Speech. It’s a world of difference from high school—I feel more independent and prepared for my first year, and I know I’m going to thank myself.” Jacob Mariotti, Geibel Catholic High School 2020
