<p>Currently I am a high school senior, and i applied and was accepted to both Binghamton University and Penn State, University Park. </p>
<p>For me, coming from New Jersey, and not having a prior opinion about either school, I am more likely to go to Penn State. I realize that Bing has higher admissions standards, but i still feel that Penn State will offer many more opportunities to learn and succeed, and along with its’ massive alumni network, will also give me more opportunities in the future. Also, I thought PSU’s campus is much nicer, and the feel of Happy Valley is just amazing. For me, it was really the intangibles that put Penn State above Binghamton.</p>
<p>That being said, I think they are both great schools, and that even though PSU is better for me, Binghamton could easily be a better fit for someone else. It is all a matter of preference.</p>
