Penn State's alumni base includes more than 645,000 people — that's more than half a million Nittany Lions worldwide. "One of the best things about Penn State overall is the fact that the alumni network is one of the largest in the United States," a student told the Princeton Review. "Because of this, PSU alums seek out Penn State grads for jobs at their companies."
Even after graduation, the university helps students further their careers. Members of the alumni association can take advantage of virtual networking events, career fairs, volunteer career coaches, and more.
