About the Campus

Penn State Great Valley is located 25 miles west of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania’s largest city. Philadelphia is in the southeastern corner of the state, and is situated between New York City and Washington, D.C. on the eastern coast of the U.S. International students have several options for housing near the campus. In the Great Valley Corporate Center, which is where the campus is located, there are many extended stay hotels and suites and furnished apartments.

International students should find their own housing before arriving in the United States. Students will need a car since the campus is not near public transportation.

When booking your flight to the U.S., you should arrive at the Philadelphia Airport (PHL). You should arrange for shuttle service from the airport.

As an international student or applicant, you may have questions about studying in the U.S. You may also wish to connect with other international students/applicants prior to arriving in the U.S. To connect with current and future Penn State Great Valley international students, we encourage you to join the International Student Group on LinkedIn.
