What’s in My Wardrobe?



State College experiences all four seasons throughout the two semesters. Here is your guide to surviving the cold winters and the rainy season.

End of Summer
August- early October
When you first move in at Penn State, it’ll feel very hot. My dorm room was so hot that I had three fans running at once.
Most people dress pretty casual to class. Athletic cropped leggings, shorts, t-shirts, and sneakers are the typical every day outfit. If you want to dress up a little bit, I suggest denim shorts or skirts, cute tops, and sandals. Don’t forget sunglasses before you head out the door!



Fall
October- end of November
Towards the end of football season, it’ll get chilly and the leaves will start to change colors (which is really pretty to see on campus).
This is the time of year when everyone breaks out their boots and jeans. I would carry a light jacket or vest with you in case it gets windy while walking to class. Cardigans and light sweaters would also be good to wear.






Winter
End of November-March
This time of the year is always the hardest for Penn State students. Walking to class in the snow is a struggle, but it won’t be as bad if you go prepared!
I highly recommend a good pair of boots for the snow (such as Hunter boots or L.L. Bean Duck Boots), a parka, and a hat. Definitely bundle up in some warm sweaters and scarves too!









Spring
March-early May
The last month of the spring semester will finally start to get warm again. It doesn’t get to summer heat yet, so some days may be chilly. This is also considered the rainy season for State College.
This time of the year has a similar wardrobe as the beginning of the fall semester. Most people go back to wearing athletic leggings or shorts with t-shirts and sneakers. I highly recommend carrying an umbrella and/or rain jacket with you everywhere you go because there’s rain at unexpected times a lot. Don’t forget to wear rain boots!
