<p>Basically I’m looking for a school that’s west, east, or in the south, with a fun atmosphere. Preferably over 7,000 students, good nightlife, and has a pretty good business program. I have a 3.6 and scored a 27 on my ACT. I want to have a good time, party a little, but also want to focus on my academics. I want a school that has an exciting atmosphere, and lots to do.</p>
<p>You do not mention cost as a criterion. How much you are able to pay may narrow your search considerably. Keep in mind that the cost includes tuition, room, board, books, transportation to and from college several times/year, pizza money, etc.</p>
<p>I don’t know if you’d consider Penn State in the east or north, but it fits your criteria. Smeal is a great business school, its a big school, tons and tons of clubs, State College is one of the best college towns in the country with lots of night life, bars, etc, athletics are big on campus which generally makes for a fun atmosphere.</p>
