Compensation spread. Offered wages on The Pennsylvania State University’s H-1B petitions range from $44,770 at the low end to $682,560 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $85,285. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Assistant Professor (214 petitions at $108,714 avg), followed by Postdoctoral Scholar and Assistant Research Professor. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.

Geographic footprint. The Pennsylvania State University is headquartered in University Park, PA under NAICS code 611310, and places H-1B workers across 3 states, most heavily in PA, CA, VA. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where The Pennsylvania State University ranks. By H-1B petition volume, The Pennsylvania State University is #234 of 119,880 employers nationally and #9 of 3,282 employers headquartered in PA. The gap between the two is the point: a mid-size national sponsor can still be a top-10 name in its own state's H-1B market.
