Overview
A small private college in Annville, Pennsylvania, in Pennsylvania Dutch country near Hershey, known well beyond its size for music.
Academics
The music and music education programs carry a strong regional reputation and produce a disproportionate number of working music teachers and performers. A direct-entry doctoral physical therapy pathway lets qualified students commit to PT from the start of undergraduate study, and actuarial science is another notable offering that's uncommon at a college this size.
Campus & student life
A close-knit, rural-adjacent campus where students tend to recognize each other across majors, and the music program's frequent performances are a real part of campus social life.
Worth knowing
The direct-entry PT pathway is a genuine differentiator — a defined route into a doctoral health profession without a separate graduate application process — worth knowing for students set on physical therapy early.
