Off the top of my head:
Lancaster has Franklin & Marshall College, Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology (2 year programs only I think) and Millersville University. York has York College of Pennsylvania and Penn State - York as well as HACC (community college). Harrisburg has Penn State - Harrisburg. Carlisle has Dickinson College. Shippensburg has, well, Shippensburg U. West Chester has West Chester U. Kutztown has Kutztown U (Millersville, Ship, W Chester and Kutztown are all part of the PASSHE system).
The Philadelphia area has a lot of universities and colleges but that's stretching it.
And I'm sure there are plenty that I've left out.

I think there are around 150 colleges in Pennsylvania, including dozens within two hours of Lancaster. PSU and Pitt have several branch colleges and our PAAHE colleges have articulation agreements with local Community colleges so students can smoothly transition all of their credits from the CC to a four year college. Here is a list of all the colleges in PA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...n_Pennsylvania
