Your Future Starts Here

Behrend offers a friendly, student-centered atmosphere with the resources of a major university. You can pursue your future career with more than 40 majors and plenty of hands-on experiences. Outside the classroom, join one of our clubs or organizations, cheer on Behrend’s NCAA teams, and take advantage of our variety of student support services.

You might not know exactly what you want to major in. You’re not alone. That’s true for a lot of incoming students today. One way to start exploring is to look at programs that match your interests. Maybe you’ll find the right program of study for you here at Behrend in one of these areas.

We know that the application process can be a lot to take in, especially if you’re a first-year applicant. Don’t worry—we’ll help you through the application, step by step. We’ll explain the process of filling out an online application, and tell you what information you’ll need to have ready.

To have the greatest chance at your first choice of campus and major, make sure to pay attention to certain deadlines in the application process. Our timeline will give you the guidance you need to be sure you’re getting your materials submitted on time.
