Rebekah Ostby
Hello, my name is Rebekah Ostby and I am the Assistant Director of Student Services, serving all Eastern University students. However, being located out of the Harrisburg Office, I focus on the students in Central PA (sites in Harrisburg and Lancaster) and online. My role is to be a point of contact for our students throughout their time in the program, striving to help provide the best experience possible.
I spent three wonderful years living and learning at Eastern’s main campus in St. Davids, PA as a student in the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS). In May of 2010, I graduated with a degree in Business Management with the goal to serve the non-profit sector of the business world.
One of the things I grew to love during my time as a student with Eastern was the community. Community encourages growth in every area of our lives – academically, emotionally, physically and spiritually. My goal is help foster the community here in Central PA while serving and supporting each student who comes through our doors. We all have busy lives and I am here to help make each person’s educational experience the best it can be, amidst the craziness of the everyday. I am learning, and hope to share with others, the importance of finding the “joy in the journey” and living each day as a gift from the Lord.
I am recently married to my wonderful husband, who is also now joining the Eastern student body. While both of us are originally from Connecticut, we have quickly fallen in love with Pennsylvania and have enjoyed making it our home.
