At Alight State College, you’ll be living within walking distance of Penn State University. Kick off your morning with a farm-fresh omelet at the Original Waffle Shop on your way to a lecture. After class, you can fill up on sushi and hibachi specialties from the buffet at Ni Hao Asian Cuisine, located close to home. Explore the walking paths of adjacent Tudek Memorial Park at the weekend, or check out the sculpture garden at the Palmer Museum of Art on campus. Later, you can take your bike for a spin along the path that runs right through the property.
When you choose The Park at State College, you’ll live less than five minutes’ drive from the busy scene on campus in a fully furnished apartment. You can walk or bike to school, but with your new home’s free unlimited bus passes you can also ride several lines that run as late as 2:30 am. After class, you’ll find it easy to mingle with your neighbors thanks to frequent social events like movie nights and barbecues. Challenge your new friends to a round of billiards in the game room, or show off your skills in a pickup game of basketball.
Once you’ve worked up an appetite, stock up on groceries at the Giant supermarket across the street, or pick up a crepe from Callao Café and Market. Come home and settle into your leather-style sofa to surf the web with the free internet, or kick back in front of your favorite cable TV shows. Heat your meal in the microwave of your well-equipped kitchen, throw your plates in the dishwasher, and then grab your towel for a swim in the outdoor pool. Later, you can challenge your friends to matches on the volleyball or tennis courts.
When you want to hit the books, retreat to your private bedroom, nestle into a shady spot on the grass or find a quiet corner in the computer center. After a vigorous workout in the state-of-the-art gym, unwind your muscles in the hot tub in the communal courtyard. As the day comes to an end, kick back on your covered balcony or patio, before hitting the hay on your comfy bed. You can rest easy because if anything comes up a 24/7 on-site team is just a phone call away.
