Hey Guys,

So my parents want me to start looking at some colleges and get a list together for touring during the summer.

right now I'm looking at

University of Pittsburgh
Washington and Jefferson College
Penn State University

You guys have any suggestions?

If you want to stay in state, I'd check out Lehigh and Allegheny. Maybe Point Park as a back up?

Go with your gut... Don't do what I did and go where your parents say you "have to go" (unless they're paying for it! ha!) I've been to 4 diff colleges in my... tenure

If you can get in, go for Penn State. It's an Ivy level state school on par with Michigan, Texas, Virginia and California. Bonus: Penn State has a great football tradition and fills a 100,000+ stadium every week.

No way!

There's only one, and it's where the Crimson Tide plays.

Incorrect. And this is coming from the daughter and best friend of PSU grads.

EDIT:

They are, however, the number 1 party school in the nation.

this is true! MY mom went to Penn and she loved it! It's such a big campus, they have their own ZIP CODE!

My dad went to Villanova (check it out!) ---i'm actually thinking of going there cause i want to get into Entertainment Law, but i've got time to figure it out! I'm only 14 lol

It's not true that Penn State is on par with Cal, UVA, Texas, etc. The honors college classes/average student might compare to those at the schools listed, but it's just not the case for the general student body.

Denison University, Granville, OH.
