Pennsylvania College of Technology will hold an Open House on Sunday, Oct. 24, offering prospective students, their families and friends an opportunity to explore academic programs, student life, and the college's campus and facilities.
The event will be offered from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the main campus in Williamsport; free transportation will be provided to and from the college's Schneebeli Earth Science Center near Allenwood and the Lumley Aviation Center at the Williamsport Regional Airport in Montoursville.
"Penn College's Fall Open House is an excellent opportunity to tour our academic labs, see our new student housing, speak with our faculty and meet our students," said Dennis L. Correll, associate dean for admissions and financial aid. "If you are a high school senior graduating in 2011, this is the perfect time to come see us. Please arrive early to make the most of your visit."
