Penn State Mont Alto invites high school students and their families to attend Prospective Student-Athlete Day on November 2, 2024, an informative event where interested students can learn about becoming a part of the rich tradition of great academics and having the opportunity to compete at the college level.
The day’s agenda will include a meet and greet with coaches, sessions on the admissions process and what it looks like to be a student-athlete at Penn State Mont Alto, as well as a panel discussion featuring current student-athletes who will share their experiences and be available to answer questions. Additionally, Karley Coleman, a 2020 dual major graduate of the Occupational Therapy Assistant and Psychology programs, and member of the women’s basketball team from 2015-2019, will be the keynote speaker for the event.
Prospective students and their guests will also engage in a tour of our beautiful campus, then have lunch, allowing for networking with faculty, staff, and other guests. The day will culminate with an opportunity to watch our men’s basketball team compete.
