All students are required to attend Welcome Day.
Participating in Welcome Day is the final step in your journey to becoming a Penn State Shenango student. This day, held the Wednesday before classes start in the fall, is dedicated to bringing you together with other new students to kick off your new life at Penn State. It prepares you for the academic challenges that lie ahead while sharing resources to enhance your success as a new Penn State student.
The Pride Group, comprised of student peer leaders, faculty, staff, and other new students, will be instrumental in acclimating you to the campus and helping you to meet other students. The day is designed to ensure an enthusiastic and positive start to your educational journey at Penn State.
