1,100Thiel offers a solid liberal arts curriculum plus
relevant experience in your chosen profession.
We offer career discernment help for
undecided majors and first-year exploratory
programs without locking into a major. All
academic programs can be completed in four
years, but our ninth-semester tuition is waived
if you need an extra semester to finish your
degree because of “extras” like internships,
service learning and study abroad
experiences. Your co-curricular transcript and
e-Portfolio system will help showcase to future
employers and professional schools what
you’ve accomplished during your college
years. Be transformed at Thiel!

See www.thiel.edu/commitment for
“The Thiel Commitment,” which lists the
promises we keep for our students. Sign
up to chat on connect.thiel.edu, Thiel’s
own social network. Start making
connections with future students, current
students, faculty, staff and alumni.
When you commit to Thiel, we commit
to you – for life! With 1,100 students as
your friends, and a beautiful campus
on 135 wooded acres, you’ll get the
full college experience. Check out the
Thiel Web site and schedule a campus
visit today at www.thiel.edu/visit.
We’re just 90 minutes from Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Erie – the Golden Triangle of
Opportunity – close enough for big-city entertainment and internships, but far enough
away to stay focused on your studies. Mercer County is known for gently rolling hills,
lakes, parks and one of the largest outlet malls in the U.S. Plan on plenty of hiking,
biking, camping, boating and shopping.

I did cancer research after
finishing my Ph.D., but I really
wanted to teach in a small private
liberal arts institution. The close
relationships with my students –
that’s what keeps me here.
JOYCE CUFFPROFESSOR OF BIOLOGY AND PAUL M.
RIKE, PROFESSOR OF LIFE SCIENCES
When I visited, I felt like I could ask anything
with my student tour guide. I chose Thiel for
the friendly atmosphere and high-quality
academic programs.

of study, like Culinary Arts with
Business or Commercial Art with
Media Communication.

professors (not teaching assistants)
who love what they do. Our 120
faculty members perform research,
network in their fields and get students
involved. Travel with your history
professor to a conference in
Pittsburgh. Monitor water stream
quality with your chemistry professor.
Caring guidance is part of the Thiel
advantage, and it’s available to you.
Thiel is one of the least expensive private colleges
in western Pennsylvania. With our competitive
scholarships and access to grants, we are often less
expensive than regional public schools. More than
98% of our students receive financial assistance. 85%
With more than 85% of our students
living on campus, you’ll be adding many
names to your social networking circle.
And plan on being involved, with more
than 50 clubs and organizations to
choose from, as well as 24 varsity sports,
most at NCAA Division III. Count on
concerts, speakers and fun, just-kicking-
back times. Hot Tubs in the Quad,
anyone? Be involved and get connected!
