Located 60 miles north of Pittsburgh, Pa., the campus of Grove City College is situated on more than 150 beautiful acres. The College is divided into two sections by Wolf Creek – Lower Campus and Upper Campus. Designed in the 1930s by the landscape architecture firm of Frederick Law Olmsted (who also designed New York City's Central Park), Upper Campus houses the spectacular Hall of Arts and Letters. Completed in 2003, the Hall of Arts and Letters is a beautiful, state-of-the-art teaching facility and the site of the Austrian Student Scholars Conference.
