Flying/Traveling Tips to Penn State

What is the best airport and method of ground transporation to get to the PSU campus? Seems like it’s in the middle of nowhere so I’m not sure where to fly into

The University Park airport isn’t huge, but might have flights that are convenient for you?

Depends on where you are coming from.

Penn State UP has many transportation options:
Megabus (Pittsburgh (3 hour bus), NYC (5 hour bus), Harrisburg (90 minutes), Philly (4 hour bus), UP airport (IAD, PHL, DTW, ORD), Fullington Bus, and Greyhound. If you must fly in, try flying into either Pitt or Harrisburg as it may be cheaper. A Megabus from those two cities are usually under $30 rt.

Thank you so much - We are flying in from Atlanta, so a flight to Harrisburg sounds like the best option.

@DrowsyChaperone Will you be seeing American Idiot at your audition? If you weren’t planning on it, I highly recommend it-really well done show!

@Techtheatrewiz My daughter was actually accepted as a MT major! They want her to come to dress or previewsof Light in the Piazza. I wish we could see both. Love that show!! And I’m guessing you’re in tech there, right?

@DrowsyChaperone Yeah, I am a SM major (actually switched from scenic design). If you have any questions about the school of theatre feel free to PM me, and/or if want to be put in contact with some MTs (if you haven’t been already) I would be glad to help you out!

Do you know when decisions will be made from Chicago Unifieds?

We were told by the directors that it’d be within a week

@DrowsyChaperone my D did not audition there but 2 of her classmates did. I love that they notify that quickly! But they still haven’t heard:(

@DrowsyChaperone, did you ever hear anything. My son was at Chicago unifieds and still hasn’t heard anything. We too got accepted to Shenandoah and Rider.

@cornymama Regarding Penn State? Yes, she got an acceptance email about a week after NYC Unifieds. They said it was an early round of acceptances, and I believe they started sending out more acceptances last week, at least I’ve seen a few people post this
