Pitt-Bradford vs Pitt-Greensburg?

<p>Wow. Your post caught my eye because I know people at both of these campuses and for that matter Pitt Johnstown. Please do your own research. The misinformation given in some of these posts is amazing. Check into “relocation” at Pitt which seems to be what they call transfering from a regional campus to Main. If at all possible visit, don’t rely on information from strangers. At least call the campus you prefer and talk to someone in admissions if you haven’t already.</p>

<p>While I am also a stranger, I lived in Greensburg for six years and in McKean county where Bradford is located for five years. I have been to both of these campuses many times. I found the campuses to be similar but the surrounding areas are very different. I know people who attend these campuses because they couldn’t get in anywhere else. I also know many more people who attend these campuses because they want to be there. There are many reasons to attend a regional campus. The people I know at these campuses are happy and do not feel like second-hand students. Neither of these campuses are anything like any high school I have ever known. Both Pitt and PSU have requirements that have to be met before you can transfer to Main campus, you need to talk to someone at Pitt to find out what they include. I know for a fact that Pitt engineering majors are guaranteed admission to Main if they complete the required coursework with a GPA of 2.75. You need to talk to someone about this concerning the major you are interested in. </p>

<p>Please, call Pitt and visit if at all possible. </p>

<p>If you are into outdoor activites consider Bradford. McKean County is beautiful but isolated and rural. In the county there is a one screen movie theater in Bradford and a drive in 30 minutes from Bradford. That is it for movies. Bradford has a few fast food/pizza places, a Dairy Queen and a Perkins Restaurant, no other eating places you would have heard of. Bradford is the home of the county’s only Walmart! :slight_smile: Look up the Allegheny National Forest. Greensburg/Westmoreland county has much much more and is less than an hour from Pittsburgh.</p>
