Kutztown University

Is committed to student success

KU supports students’ academic and personal development by providing high-quality services that will help them make the most of their time at KU. Whether students need help with a paper or resume, or a tutor for a class, the university has an office to offer the support they need.

The Center for Student Success and Academic Excellence holds workshops throughout each semester to teach strategies like time management, testtaking, note-taking and textbook reading. In addition, the center offers the KU Succeed program, aimed to increase the retention and graduation rate of students who may need extra academic support. The program focuses on students’ individual needs and offers specialized advising and other assistance that has proven beneficial to students.

KU also understands the financial commitment of higher education and is dedicated to helping students and families achieve their goals. About 80% of Kutztown students receive financial aid in the form of scholarships, grants, loans or student employment.

As a member of the State System of Higher Education, KU enrolls about 7,700 undergraduate and graduate students. It offers more than 200 student organizations, including Greek, academic, religious, cultural, social, athletic and performance-related groups. The university also offers specific organizations for students transferring from another institution.

At KU, students learn the skills to excel in the workforce, attend graduate school and achieve success. They are making an impact at companies like Air Products, Lego, Google, Adidas, the Mayo Clinic and many others in the Lehigh Valley and beyond.

The journey of personal growth starts at KU. When students graduate, they’re capable of accomplishing any goals they set for themselves. At Kutztown University, it’s good to be golden.
