How to get from Penn State to Cornell?

For those who live in Philadelphia, PA: How to get from Philmont to Penn State Abington campus with train R3?

• I currently have to take 3 buses in order to get to Penn State Abington and trip takes me about 2 hours. I've heard there's easier way with a train. I can get to Philmont ave and I know R3 goes there, then where should I get out in order to reach my campus? Would there be a long walk from Rydal Station to abington campus? Can someone please give me direction plan?? Thank you in advance...
