The ACME will showcase Penn State Altoona’s associate and baccalaureate degree programs. Participants will have the opportunity to interact with faculty who coordinate these programs, and Career Services and Admissions staff members will also be on hand to provide information. The event is sponsored by the college’s Division of Undergraduate Studies.
