Penn State York is a commonwealth campus of Pennsylvania State University located in York County, PA in Spring Garden Township. It enrolls 742 students as of 2021.

The York campus was established in 1939 to provide technical education and to allow students to complete basic degree requirements in their home area before transferring to University Park to finish their program. In 1953, the school began to offer its first complete associate degree programs. It moved to its present location in 1956.

Today, Penn State York remains a suburban commuter-campus and occupies 51 acres (210,000 m2).[1] The campus offers 12 baccalaureate degrees, 8 minors, 5 associate-level degrees, a Master of Education in Teaching and Curriculum, an English as a Second Language Program Specialist Certificate, a Directors Credential, and two 1-credit graduate level courses.[2]
