Attend IUP Give to IUP

Visit the IUP Campus

Virtual Tour

Explore our beautiful campus through videos and photographs, with stops at a residential hall, a dining hall, an academic building, the library, the HUB, and more. Our students tell you about each stop along the way. If you can’t get to campus or can’t take a tour, it’s a great way to get to know us.

Take the Virtual Tour

Students tell us they just got a feeling when they visited—that everything they wanted from a college was right here. It just felt right.
When you take a day to visit IUP, you open up possibilities. Picture yourself walking to class through the Oak Grove. Imagine eating dessert with your roommate in the new dining hall or studying in our library. Get a feel for the campus. Meet students and professors. Learn more about your options and the opportunities our students have to set themselves apart and stand out when they graduate.
Whether you’re just looking around, have already applied, or have been accepted into our next class, we warmly invite you to come and explore our beautiful campus.
