My years at Penn State have taught me more than what I could have expected to gain from a college education. I have been able to take classes on many different and interesting subject matters, and I have also been the given the chance to take part in many different activities that, had I not been at Penn State, I would not have been able to enjoy. Penn State has a place for every one who is accepted to be accepted whether that be in social clubs, academic honors, or just by making friends that will last a lifetime. At first, Penn State can seem overwhelming because of its size, but it quickly looses its daunting first impression and becomes very endearing.

No kidding, if you like to party, yet not get drunk and rowdy, go to frats that aren't considered hot shit. These brothers get drunk and start yelling and making everyone miserable by making unnecessary drama. Lower key frats are the ones that throw down just as hard, are just as packed, and yet keep the yelling and drama out, plus you can actually get a beer without begging and pleading. Only thing about the party scene is that if you do enjoy frat parties, if you disrespect the place you'll be outside within a minute, not anything you shouldn't follow anyways.

Honestly don't know anyone who came to psu who didnt like it. It doesn't matter if you drink or not, there is always something to do!

Penn state is fun.

Penn State is the best school. Everyone loves it. WE ARE!

When I was a senior in high school I was so against going to Penn State. I wanted to get as far away from home as possible and go to a school no one else was going to. Well, I did it and then I transferred to PSU after I realized just how expensive and exhausting NYC was. I have never been happier. I love Penn State and I can't believe that it was under my nose the whole time. I am never bored. However, I must warn everyone. If you hate Winter find another school! But, if you can deal with it, there is nothing better than PSU in the Spring and summer.

Come to PSU it's the best place in the world. If you can find a student body that loves their school more than PSU does, I'd love to hear where this school is.

PSU has large internship/career fairs in the fall and spring, and those are great opportunities to meet with recruiters looking to hire students.

Overall, Penn State is definitely what they say, "A drinking town with a football problem." However, that doesn't fully describe what we have to offer. It's a great place to find a job, and a good place to make friends.

Penn State is a joke. Academics are not difficult; students - as a whole - are not motivated, but rather live up to the derogatory stereotype of being Animal House wannabes. The lack of emphasis placed on football makes you wonder what most students chose this particular college for: preparation for their future, or an excellent tailgating season.
