With our deepest apologies, this website will be down for a few days.

Pennsylvania Department of Education officials understand that our sole purpose in creating this website is to share information with the interested public all relevant information regarding Erie County’s application to the Department to create a community college in Erie County to serve northwest Pennsylvania.

However, during a May 5 meeting with the Pennsylvania Department of Education, we were informed that for the good of the public, state law specifies that an educational institution is not allowed to be named and identified until it is registered with the Department of State and approved by the Department of Education. Since we had provided a tentative name for the proposed institution, we were in violation of state law.

We are currently revising the nwpcc.info website and presenting the revision to Department officials for their review and approval, and will have the site back up as quickly as possible. Our hope is that it will be live again within one week. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

Sincerely,
David VanAmburg
