UCSD, Purdue, or Penn State?

I’m at Penn State so I can give you some insights of the school.

I have a couple of friends in the Hospitality Management program here and they really like it. The college of Health and Human Development, like many other institutions, bring recruiters specifically for those in the program. I believe like 80-90% walk out of the fairs every semester with some internship offer, if not, a connection in the least. That said, Penn State is a great school with the awesome college-life atmosphere, but State College is not the most exciting place to be. I’d rather be in San Diego to be honest.

I’m not too sure about the field of Hospitality, so I’m going to suggest that you look at the programs carefully. If there’s something that really stands out about the program, then dig deeper into it and go on from there. And if money is the issue, I would stay at UCSD. It’s a good school, as well. In terms of ranking, Penn State and UCSD have a marginal difference. Both are good schools with different atmospheres.

Hope I helped a bit.
