Clarion University - Venango is a special place where faculty members and students come together to explore the world. Whether it's in the classroom, in a laboratory, or through community service.
From its very beginning to the present, the Venango College of Clarion University has been a product of community and university, working together to advance the needs of our region.
The history of Venango College is an inspiring story of the dedicated efforts of many people who raised funds for land, buildings and scholarships, and cut through miles of bureaucratic and legal red tape to build the first regional campus in the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education.
It is also a story of partnerships, of finding ways to join forces with others in the fields of health care, industry, business, and education to enhance and expand programs, extend outreach, share resources, and meet the changing needs of the Commonwealth and its workforce in a dynamic and cost-effective manner.
For over fifty years, heroes among us have changed lives, providing opportunities for students to achieve their dreams and helping to keep jobs- and the people who need them-here at home in our community.
Clarion University - Venango delivers a personal and challenging academic experience, serving the region as the high-achieving, nationally accredited campus of a comprehensive university. The campus seeks motivated, career-oriented students of all ages and backgrounds who want to learn and grow in a small and supportive environment that promotes personal discovery and professional development.
