Success Stories

Graduating with my Penn State degrees has changed me. I felt a sense of accomplishment, a sense of pride, and fulfillment. I felt powerful. I even look at employers differently now. I’m in the driver’s seat now when it comes to my career.

When I found Penn State World Campus, that was the perfect fit. It was flexible, it was affordable, and it hit kind of all of the knowledge and skills bases that I was looking for to get out of the degree and then advance my career. 

Penn State really did truly prepare me for my career. It was the perfect experience for me because it allowed me to be a parent, a great student, and a professional in my career. I don’t think, without an education, I could’ve elevated myself the way I intended to, without Penn State World Campus.

Penn State World Campus enabled me to achieve my dreams by allowing me to continue my education while working full-time and having a work life balance with my friends and family.

Growing up, I always wanted to be a Penn Stater. When Penn State World Campus came around, it was an opportunity to complete that dream from Texas with all my family here.

Having my Penn State degree through World Campus is helping me professionally because of the reputation that comes with the quality of a Penn State education.

Being able to work with Penn State World Campus and find not only a degree program I was interested in, but knowing that I had that flexibility made it work perfectly for us.

Penn State changed me as a person. Having spent 20 years in the Marine Corps, I had certain views of the world. A Penn State education certainly gave me a different perspective, and it’s something that I never, ever take for granted.
