Does your brother have a year-long rent or an academic-year contract? because if he has a year-long contract, it means he’s paying till August. He may or may not live there… but you can always try and live there with him because some of his roommates won’t be around, so it’ll be okay for the summer. Does he have job prospects? (One advantage of State College for one who can’t drive is the excellent public transportation system).
Did you get branch campus after applying to UP or did you not apply to UP? Switching campuses isn’t just a matter of academic qualifications, but rather of space. After March 1, they pretty much put you wherever there’s space. I don’t know whether you might get into UP, however finding out which branch campus is located in the cheapest-rent area would be crucial (and it won’t be UP, unless your brother sticks around and you share an apartment.) Some branch campuses have housing (Harrisburg, Behrend, for instance) but in other cases they’re mostly commuter campuses without housing, most students live at home and commute every day.

What is your brother saying?
