Just jumping in to say that University of Delaware is an amazing option. The location is so much better than PSU. The town is outstanding, and it is so convenient to Wilmington, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and DC. I am very familiar with both schools and most kids from our area would certainly say that PSU is a MUCH bigger party school than Delaware. Our school sends about 100 kids to PSU main and many more to branch campuses every year (Instate) and dozens to Delaware (OOS). U of D gets higher ranked students from our area. WCU is a great option as well for a smaller school than the other two.
