Campus Environment

I'm from California, so I'm use to warm weather and sunshine. do you think I'll be drastically affected by the weather there? Does it get too bad?

Is Meadsville a small town? What is there to do when you're not studying or in school?

well..its a lot different and it does get really cold but it doesnt snow that often..it depends on how much you like the california weather and if you've ever been in the cold..

meadville is a really small town..but allegheny always has a lot of sutff going on..fraternities throw a lot of parties and there is a bar in town that most of the students go to on weekends

meadville is a very small town. from what i have heard, there isn't much to do in the town itself. However, the campus has enough going that people rarely go out to the town much. again this is what i have heard. For the weather, I have lived both in saudi arabia and in michigan, and from experience, there is a big difference. However, it doesn;t take much time to get accustomed to it. Hopefully, Meadville won't be worse than Bloomfield.

Meadville's in the lake affect snow belt ... and while not quite as bad as Edinboro, 20 miles north, it gets blasted. More than anywhere else in PA. Michigan winters last longer, but not the snow accumulation of Meadville. 20 miles south a totally different story.
