Alvernia was recently granted university status by the Pennsylvania State Department of Education. As of September 25, 2008 we are now known as Alvernia University!
If you're interested in a small, private university fostering values-based education, the art of critical thinking, and pragmatic emphasis on career preparation, Alvernia may just be what you're looking for.
At Alvernia, we challenge our students to grow personally, and we prepare them for life and work in a world calling for moral leadership.
We invite you to browse our website and discover how you could thrive and succeed at Alvernia.
Alvernia University would like to welcome you to campus this fall to learn more about academics and student life, hear an overview of the admissions and financial aid process, enjoy a complimentary lunch, and more.
Our next Open House is Saturday, October 18th. Check for other dates and/or register online!
