Am learning a lot
I am learning everything I always dreamed of! And that is a GREAT education!
Am enjoying being here
I love being apart of Penn State Berks, there is so much to do and there is so much love here. This campus is so beautiful, and well-kept.
Bang for the buck
I am receiving the education of a lifetime. Why wouldn't I pay for this...it's great.
Tips for prospective students
Time management is key to being successful in any school, but especially at this campus, there are a ton of distractions. Get involved with what Berks has to give. Network with all your professors, this helps with recommendations, scholarships,grants, internships, and more. Make sure to complete all work before its due it makes it easier for you to do activity work with your group, your team,or just hanging out with your friends. Follow all rules because when you break you will get in trouble. Last but not least enjoy college, but make sure you make your parents proud because WE ARE....Penn State!!!!!!
Great for these types of students
How should I put this? I love Penn State Berks, this campus shows so much school spirit, so much love and so much excitement. Even though we are not the biggest campus and we are not the main campus WE ARE....Penn State regardless of what campus we are on we are still on in the same. Our campus shows so much love and consideration for all students. Our classes are very small its like the size of a high school class about 20-25 students, its easy for students to get to know their professor as well as the professor getting to know the students. Every professor here at Penn State Berks are willing to help every student even if you the student is not a student of the professor. Also here at Berks we have so many activities to part-take in. Just because we are a small campus does not mean that we are a boring campus. We have so much like track team,soccer,basketball,dance team, cheerleaders,groups trying to bring greek life to the campus, and so much more. This campus is great for all students and I recommend this campus to everybody, because everybody wants the love that Penn State Berks give!

Am learning a lot
I learned a great deal this semester about cultures from around the world, some of which I didn't even know existed before. This is a subject I was very interested in before, and am even more interested in now.
Am enjoying being here
I am meeting a lot of great people who share interests and values with me. The classes are stimulating and are making me think about all sorts of things I wouldn't normally.
Bang for the buck
I am very satisfied with my experience.
Tips for prospective students
Talk to your advisors. They can help you with scheduling your classes in the most efficient ways (which courses count as credit for two different requirements, which ones are on the same days, etc) and with choosing which major might be best for you.
Great for these types of students
Great for independent learners (like homeschoolers) and those who want small class sizes.
