it’s not competitive in the way you think, this isn’t JHU

not sure what you mean by a fun city but pittsburgh is alright…certainly there will be enough for you to do to take up whatever free time you’ll have (probably)

some places do close rather early though

the social life is rather poor in comparison to your average college, especially if you like to party

you can have fun but it really is a tossup depending on who you meet/where you go/etc…overall though personally when I look back on my years here I won’t be thinking “hey that was fun!” but “hey I got a good education!”

I’ve even had a professor tell me that he knows there is a lack of a social life at CMU - wonder where he was during orientation!
