<p>i loved penn state when i visited. i loved to big campus that felt like it was out of a movie and the fact that it had a snowboarding club plus a mountain 10 minutes away. i loved the sense of pride everyone has for their school. and i like the wide options of courses the offer</p>
<p>what are some similar schools just in case i dont get into psu?</p>
<p>I also like Pennslyvania State University- University Park though it can be very expensive for a out of state student, also heard tuition is likely to increase ( like every other university recently), and funding scholarhips, which is not good for in-state or out of state students.</p>
<p>Geez, almost any of the Big 10, but Indiana would probably be closest in terms of “feel”, along with MSU and U Iowa possibly, and UIUC/OSU would be at the same level academically.</p>
