Outreach

The CT Valley chapter participates in a number of activities to further the local community and relationship with Penn State students and alumni. Follow the links below to learn more about each item:

Recruiting - we participate in year-round college recruiting, to help Connecticut high schoolers and their families make the decision to join the Penn State family.

The Bus - we organize round-trip bus service from New England to Penn State several times throughout the year, making it easy on students and families to get home for the holidays.

Scholarship - through an almost $250,000 endowment, we sponsor two freshman scholarships every year, and since 2004 have awarded over $50,000 in scholarships.

PSU License Plate - The Penn State custom license plate for Connecticut is ready for the road! Apply for your plates today and show fellow New Englanders that you are Penn State Proud.
