Get to Know WPU

Mission & History

Our Quaker heritage is what shapes our outlook on the world. It fuels the welcoming nature of our community and its openness to people of all ethnicities and faiths. It guides us in our mission to prepare true leaders, innovate through new technology, and prepare every individual who walks our halls to be his or her very best.

Our Campus

Located in the small, tightly knit community of Oskaloosa, Iowa, the William Penn campus is just an hour’s drive from the state’s capital of Des Moines and blends the aesthetic charm of several historical buildings with state-of-the-art facilities and technological resources.

Contact & Directory

At William Penn, it’s our people who make us who we are. It’s in them that you’ll see our spirit come alive every day. And they’re here for you.
