You may want to check with clubs of interest at those schools to see if they meet regularly.
Don’t assume they are better / more frequent than Vandy. Colleges don’t tell you but many clubs are half dormant.
Also run the NPC for CMU.
Penn State is the outlier here - with Vandy, Pitt, and CMU all city schools.
I just hope, if you end up transferring, it may not be as different as you think - so research your areas of concern (ie talk to people in clubs, the career center) b4 making the move.
