Dear Friends,
It is a great pleasure to welcome you to Clarion University–Venango Campus, the oldest regional campus in Pennsylvania's State System of Higher Education. Our mission is to serve the needs of Venango County and the surrounding region through quality programs and outstanding services in a highly personal and caring environment.
Venango Campus students attend full-time and part-time and include those who just finished high school and those who are returning to college after many years in the home or workplace. The campus’ programs and services are designed to meet a wide range of needs and are offered with the flexibility that is required for a diverse community of learners. Please let us know how we can help you.
My colleagues and I are immensely proud of the campus' history. Community leaders advocated the creation of the campus in Oil City over 45 years ago and raised funding to establish the campus. Our facilities are named for some of those community pioneers and today the community continues its legacy of strong support for the Venango Campus.
Clarion University–Venango Campus offers a wide range of credit and non-credit programs, including associate, bachelor's and master's degrees, certificate programs, and continuing education courses and seminars that provide opportunities for personal enrichment and professional development. Further, students may begin any of Clarion University's 90+ four-year degree programs at the Venango Campus.
Clarion University–Venango Campus is home to the University's School of Nursing and Allied Health and Department of Applied Technology, and is experiencing growing enrollment and an expanding array of programs to meet the needs of the region. Thanks to generous financial support from our community, the Venango Campus now offers new student apartment housing, enabling it to serve students from a wide geographic area.
Thank you for your interest in our very special academic community, and best wishes from the students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of Clarion University–Venango Campus!
Sincerely,
Christopher M. Reber
Executive Dean
