A brief description of the institution’s main campus and other aspects of the institutional boundary used to complete this report:
Muhlenberg's current 82-acre campus is located in a residential neighborhood in Allentown's West End.
In 1988, the college opened the Harry C. Trexler library, named for local industrialist Harry Clay Trexler. The library houses over 233,000 volumes and 360,000 microforms on-campus, and has access to over 1.75 million books via interlibrary loan. It serves as a Federal Depository Library.
In 2006, a new science building and an additional residence hall were completed.
In addition to the main campus, Muhlenberg maintains the 64-acre Lee and Virginia Graver Arboretum approximately 25 miles away in Bushkill Township, and Raker Wildlife Preserve, a 38-acre wildlife sanctuary 15 miles away in Germansville.
In 2010, Muhlenberg College expanded their Seegers Student Union, which included expanded dining facilities.
In December of 2022, the new Parkway Boulevard building is expected to be completed. It is set to be one of five buildings in the world for the LBC certification (after one year of installation)
