Living at PennWest Edinboro

Welcome to a place that feels just like home

There’s a feeling you get when you stroll around five-acre Mallory Lake. It’s a little hard to explain, but it feels a lot like home.

At PennWest Edinboro we’re proud of the welcoming campus we’ve created. And we’re always looking for new ways to make every student feel right at home.
