Now that the May 1 deadline is approaching, the question of “Where will I go to college?” is more present than ever. If you’re like me, you still don’t know where you want to go to school. I had my heart set on going to Fordham University in New York City for virtually all of […]
A Big Transition to a Big Ten School
So now that you’ve decided on Penn State, or even if you haven’t made up your mind yet, there is one thing you’ve probably thought about: You’re about to move out of your house, leave your family and friends, and walk into a whole new environment. If that sounds terrifying to you, don’t worry because […]
Making Penn State’s Size Work For You
Penn State University Park is home to over 40,000 undergraduate students. With a campus that is over 8,000 acres, you can sometimes feel like a small fish in a big pond. This was something that used to scare me when I was thinking about picking a school, but now the large size is my favorite […]
Supplemental Housing Isn’t So Bad
If you’re like me, then you had a lot of trouble deciding which college to go to. I’m from out of state, so I didn’t grow up a die-hard Penn Stater. I went back and forth between Penn State and another college for months before finally deciding to come here just a couple of days […]
Don’t Be Stressed About Finding a Roommate
So now that you’ve been accepted, hopefully attended one of our accepted student programs, and went home to click the big red button to accept your offer; it’s time to start thinking about housing. If you’re unaware, you are required to live on campus as a freshman. Whether you request to live in East, Pollock, […]
My Penn State Decision
My name is Lauren Goodyear and I’m a junior public relations and psychology double major, and am involved in lots of clubs and organizations on campus. I’m mainly involved with The Penn State Thespians and No Refund Theatre. I am also a writer for Her Campus Penn State. I’ve been really involved with THON the […]
My Accepted Student Program Experience
Now that most of you have received an offer from Penn State, the next step is to plan your Accepted Student visit to campus! Accepted Student Programs vary by your choice of academic college. Because I’m studying Journalism, I attended the College of Communications’ Accepted Student day. I remember it like it was yesterday, even […]
So You Got Accepted… Now What?
After years of college tours and applications, here you are with your acceptance letter to Penn State. You’re probably a mix of emotions- excited, nervous, indecisive. Perhaps you have plenty of other schools you’re thinking about, perhaps Penn State is the only place you applied, or maybe you got into a branch campus and are […]
Major Change isn’t such a Major Change
I came into college knowing I had absolutely everything planned out. I was going to graduate in 4 years (or less) with a degree in Advertising and a minor or two. I’d move on to work an amazing job right after graduation. My freshman year consisted of almost all communications classes sprinkled by a couple […]
My First Semester: Corbin Miller
Who better to talk about what being a freshman at Penn State is like than… a freshman? Meet Corbin. He is a freshman in DUS (our undecided major track), a member of a fraternity… and he also happens to be my brother. I sat down with him to ask about what it was like to have a sibling at […]
