I am very happy to bring all of you some great information on Susquehanna University. I’ve personally visited their campus, and it is a terrific place for any type of student to spend their college years. Please take some time to read these highlights on the school, sent to me from their admissions team. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions, and as always, happy searching!
Susquehanna University, located in Selinsgrove, PA., educates students in the liberal arts and sciences and provides them with real-world, professional experiences through the School of Arts and Sciences and the Sigmund Weis School of Business. The business school ranks among the top 5% of business programs worldwide to have earned AACSB accreditation, a marker of excellence.
Recognized by the New York Times as one of the 10 most economically diverse colleges in the nation, Susquehanna was also named a Best Northeastern College by the Princeton Review’s 2015 Best 379 Colleges. Our 2,200 students (from 35 states and 21 countries) graduate with the broad-based academic foundation and 21st -century job skills—critical thinking, writing, teamwork and communication skills—that employers and graduate schools seek. In fact, 94 percent of Susquehanna students are employed or in graduate or professional school within six months of graduation!
With more than 60 majors and minors—including several new programs for Fall 2015—and self-designed majors available, students easily combine their talents and interests with their career aspirations. Many disciplines offer hands-on collaborative research opportunities beginning in the first year of study. And recent grants to the university, including $2.25 million from the prestigious Richard King Mellon Foundation for freshwater research, provide additional opportunities for student research.
Seventy-eight percent of our students complete internships or have pre-professional experience before graduation. These experiences translate into tangible outcomes for our students—for example, approximately one-third of accounting majors have job offers before they begin their senior year and 83 percent complete the 150 credit hours required for the CPA examination within their four years here.
Additionally, Susquehanna’s nationally-recognized Global Opportunities (GO) program ensures students meet our cross-cultural requirement by studying for a minimum of two weeks in a culture unfamiliar to them—either in the U.S. or abroad—and by completing a reflection course after their return. Students can choose from more than 100 programs in 75 countries on six continents.
