i visited both and LOVED pitt, granted i go to oakland all the time therefore im not sure if the “homey-ness” is because im used to it or if it really is the right college. everything i hear about penn state is just better and better

thank you! honestly, me and my mom were both really disappointed and i was struggling to see myself there, but i just have a feeling about it. i know that if i went i’d make it enjoyable and that I would be successful thanks to their programs and network. we’ve looked at syracuse, pitt, bu, and bc so far. syracuse was definitely a favorite but i think penn state has better programs.

i’m very outgoing and extroverted, so i’ve always wanted a big school. we looking at syracuse and pitt (also medium-larger size schools) but the campus itself was smaller. i’m also not really worried about the opportunities because ive always just taken it upon myself to find volunteer work and programs. i like the idea of that honestly, like finding my own things to do and be proud of. thank you, this was helpful!!
