January 19, 2007, the Penn State Board of Trustees formally changed the name of Penn State McKeesport to Penn State Greater Allegheny. The name change reflected the evolving and expanding presence for the campus in the region.

More than 22,000 Penn State alumni live in Allegheny County — the largest concentration of alumni residing in any one county in the nation — and approximately 4,000 Penn State students hail from the county.
