The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1893 purchased the surrounding lands from the Mont Alto Iron Co. The State Forest Academy was established in 1903 on this site and in 1929 was merged with the Penn State's School of Forestry. Mont Alto continued offering the freshmen year of the forestry curriculum until 1963, when it expanded its academic program and became a commonwealth campus.
