Everyone seemed to be extremely nice. They were all willing to give directions! Students were also very "green," studious, and seemed to get along with one another very well. [View Full Report]

All the students I came into contact to were very willing to help. They WANTED to help us, and they all tried convincing us that Penn's the best possible school. [View Full Report]

I encountered a few (3 people in particular) very rude people, but other than that, everyone was incredibly helpful. Some people offered to help when they saw a map in my hand. [View Full Report]

Sometimes I would have to ask random students for directions, and they all helped without any attitude. My host's friends were especially accommodating, making sure I was comfortable on-campus. [View Full Report]
