Student Care at Penn State New Kensington
Students may experience a variety of challenges during their college career. The Office of Student Affairs acts as a central liaison that coordinates efforts with campus partners to assist students who encounter challenges or concerns in achieving success at Penn State.
Please reach out if you or someone you know has been impacted by any of the following:

Our purpose is to empower students to overcome obstacles to their growth both inside and outside the classroom. We encourage students to maximize their educational experience and prepare them for involvement in the larger community and for life beyond college.
