“I came to IUP as a transfer student, and I chose IUP because of the diversity of academic majors and minors. I knew I could change my mind, and IUP would have what I wanted, and I wanted to be able to change my mind while in college rather than five years out of college. IUP was fantastic about accepting those credits—I didn’t miss a beat. Most of the classes transferred seamlessly and made for a really easy transition.”

Hannah Neumann, who tried out five majors, found Computer Science and went from internship to job offer

“At History Club, I gave a presentation on the history of police brutality in the United States. I connected it to a lot of the issues going on today. We all had an honest and open discussion at the end, and it was an awesome experience getting up in front of people and talking about something I was passionate about.”

“I chose to attend IUP for pre-physical therapy due to their connection with Gannon University’s Doctorate of Physical Therapy (DPT) program for an accelerated 3+3 curriculum. In place of attending senior year at IUP, I will begin my first year in the DPT program at Gannon University and have those credits transfer to IUP to fulfill my senior year requirements.”

Kelly Parsons, Natural Science, Pre-Physical Therapy

“For me, research is important because it gives me hands-on experience in something I will be doing in the future. It’s a good experience to have now before graduate school, and IUP has a really good research program.”
