Most seniors at UP live off campus, in the town of State College. There are student complexes all over town and buses going to all of them (this is standard for a college town).

If your brother wants to do research, it means he may stay at UP. If he got into med school, the med school is elsewhere. Ask him what he knows about his post-graduation plans and how he can help you. Even if you’re not a brat, he may not help you. However, if he had to go through this, he may be more willing to help you than most because he understands what you’re going through.

Why didn’t you try for UP - too unlikely?
The 2+2 system would work out fine, anyway, but you do need to figure out how to pay for things… which means a job.
A good side to your brother living in SC (beside potential housing for a few weeks) is that the students leave so there’ll be jobs if you start looking right now. Do you have a way to get to State College so you can drop off your resume?
When does your sports season end? Would you be able to find a job that you can walk to?
If your HS doesn’t have driver’s ed, how do students learn how to drive? Would your brother be willing to teach you?
