It is the mission of this organisation to educate students at all levels, including undergraduate, graduate, professional, and continuing education, and to deliver this education both in-person and online. A publicly funded university that is regarded as providing an education of a quality that is comparable to that of an Ivy League school is referred to as a "Public Ivy," and the University Park campus has been given this designation.
