Clarion University’s 5,200 determined students are building a bright future through challenging academics and diverse interests, all while living in a town of 5,300 people who embrace them.
We prepare students in business, education, health, science and the arts with a small student-to-faculty ratio (19 to 1) and nationally and internationally accredited programs. There also are internship and study abroad opportunities to broaden one’s horizons.
Students embrace learning at our scenic Clarion campus, which has evolved since its seminary beginnings in 1867; at our growing Clarion University — Venango campus located in Oil City; and through Clarion Online, which offers education from the comfort of one’s own home.
Students are able to take advantage of these exciting educational opportunities through financial aid. Ninety-five percent of our students receive some form of financial aid
