Located in the city of Lock Haven in central Pennsylvania, LHU is a state university with a student population of 3,555 undergraduates and 370 graduate students.

Several unique programs, including The Haven Mindset and The First-Year-Experience, are described as part of the initiative.

Corresponding to the launching of the branding campaign is the introduction of a new website, with the school’s primary domain now lockhaven.edu from the previous lhup.edu. Improvements in the new site include more advanced personnel, department, and academic directories and enhanced content designed for student recruitment.
