Eyyy that’s where I go!

If you don’t want to pay the out of state tuition, cross it off your list straightaway. But if that’s not a problem–

UP is located in State College, PA, also known as “the middle of nowhere.” However, with 40k students on campus, there’s never a lack of things to do. I volunteer at the local animal shelter and am going to be an officer of the book club this year, in addition to being a member of SWE. The engineering program is highly respected and places lots of engineers into jobs every year. You don’t mention your GPA, but PSU places high emphasis on that, as well as decent test scores. You can look up the Common Data Set for any school to see how you stack up. If your GPA is high, consider applying for the honors college, Schreyer. They don’t look at test scores, afaik. We get perks like early registration and quiet honors housing.
