Historic Main Line

Nestled in affluent Wayne, PA, Eastern University is in one of the top 10 college communities in the country (USA Today). There are 40 colleges in the Philadelphia and Philadelphia suburbs, 25% of which are on the Main Line. Eastern students can take advantage of Wayne’s small, walkable downtown, which is lined with local cafes, stores, and businesses. Wayne is an especially good resource for students who are looking for internships or work experience.

Nearby Philadelphia

Eastern University is situated just outside the major, historic urban metropolis of Philadelphia, a diverse city which evinces all of the benefits and challenges of a major urban center and which provides unique learning and living opportunities for students. Eastern students can take the train from the St. Davids station (located adjacent to campus) and be in the city within 20-25 minutes.

Literary and Writing Opportunities

Philadelphia and surrounding communities offer a wide range of libraries, museums, writing workshops, and other locations and activities related to English writing and literature. Field trips to see plays performed in the city, view manuscripts, or to engage in other scholarly and creative opportunities are a unique part of the English major experience at Eastern.
