I was in the same situation. Over my spring break I flew all the way from Hawaii (where I live) to visit each school on one of their designated spring open house days. After a lot of thought I decided to attend Maryland. The people seemed very open and the large ammount of diversity also played a large part in my decision. I was looking for a great school with a great journalism program and a diverse, spirited student body. In my opinion Penn State was impersonal. Hope that helps, maybe I’ll see you next fall =)
