Should we always mention the campus?

I do not see how it is lying to say you went to Penn State,
no matter which campus you received your degree from.

If a prospective employer wants more info,
they can ask.

After you have experience in your field,
and are out of college a few years, I do not think it matters much.

In the case of Penn State, it’s not lying because Penn State is all one entity.  Other states/universities may be different.  It really comes down to how the university is set up.  Some are separate entities (like Texas A&M, University of Maine), and others are not (like Penn State).  Outsiders may not know the difference, but hopefully graduates will.

Yeah, I heard that Penn State World Campus students can transfer credits into the in-person Penn State college, and vice versa. Moreover, your degree will state 'Penn State' with no mention of 'online' or 'global,' as it's intended to be exactly the same as the in-person degree.

The downside is that it will cost you over 20k for that degree. However, they do accept up to 84 transfer credits and also take Sophia's credits!
