Accommodations

Almost all summer research projects are designed to be in-person experiences. The expectation is that you will live and work in State College, PA, on the University Park campus of Penn State for the duration of the summer program.

This year we are offering an on-campus room and board package (single room in a campus dormitory with a meal plan) as part of the program, but if you already have local living arrangements, you can decline the room and board in favor of a larger stipend payment.

Are you able to live and work in State College, PA, for the duration of the program?

Are you interested in living in a campus residence hall during the program?
