Slippery Rock University is Pennsylvania’s premier public residential university.

Consumers Digest has named Slippery Rock as the fifth “best value” public university in America based on its quality plus affordability. U.S. News and World Report named SRU one of the top 100 colleges in the north.

The Princeton Review selected it as one of the best 286 universities in the Northeast.

Slippery Rock University provides students with a comprehensive learning experience that combines academic instruction with hands-on learning opportunities, a winning combination for success.

Students are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities from undergraduate research, community volunteerism and academic internships to study abroad and personal leadership development.

Slippery Rock University offers more than 65 undergraduate majors and 20 graduate programs including a doctorate in physical therapy.

Its Honor’s Program offers academically gifted students an opportunity to study with select faculty in small, highly interactive academic settings both here and abroad.

It has a distinguished faculty. More than 92 percent have an earned doctorate or terminal degree. And, because our most common class size is only 20-29 students, faculty members have time to mentor students and provide the personal attention that has become a hallmark of an SRU education.

The university is home to more than 8,800 students. It is only 50 miles north of Pittsburgh and 35 miles east of Youngstown, Ohio, and is easily accessible via Interstate 79.
