The college search process is not an easy path and is by far, one of the most important decisions that you will make in your life. In hopes of making it easier for you, allow me to share some of the ways Millersville University is EPPIIC and why it’s the right choice for you.

What is EPPIIC? It is an acronym for our core values and the driving force behind our desire to see you succeed as a student, as a professional and in life. EPPIIC stands for Exploration, Professionalism, Public Mission, Integrity, Inclusion and Compassion. These values hold our campus to a high standard for a respectful culture that embodies everything that we do.

As a Millersville student, you will develop your values through your time at Millersville University.

The experience of college will allow you to grow and prepare for the rest of your life’s journeys.

These EPPIIC values build a foundation for successful global citizenship.

I look forward to welcoming you to the Millersville community.

With warm regards,

Daniel A. Wubah
