Student Housing

Students come to PTI from many different hometowns, states and time zones to move into PTI’s student housing. Leaving the comfort of home to go away to college can be unsettling – at first. But soon, students meet roommates, make friends with the students in the apartment across the hall, and spend more and more time with classmates. Suddenly moving into student housing wasn’t so bad after all. In fact, it’s fun to be on their own, in their own apartment, making new friends, and enjoying campus and housing activities.

The Pittsburgh Area

Pittsburgh is a friendly town with quiet neighborhoods and lively entertainment spots. The North Fayette Campus is located between downtown Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh International Airport, nestled in the small town of Oakdale. Rolling fields, working farms and local businesses surround the 180-acre campus. It’s not unusual to spot deer and turkey on the horizon as you come up the school's driveway. While rural in appearance, students easily can access shopping, movies, sporting events or the attractions of suburban and city living. This central Airport Corridor campus location provides many housing choices for PTI students.
