Review of Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Altoona

from Altoona, PA

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Its all about your professors!! So when you schedule your first classes, make sure you go to www.ratemyprofessors.com and look the professor up! Trust me, you'll thank me in the end.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

I was intimidated my first semester, but trust me its not hard making new friends here! Everyone has great pride in the school, and loves meeting new people. Don't be afraid to introduce yourself to other students.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Yes of course you have to pay for your books; don't buy them from the book store though. Get them off of half.com you'll save atleast 300 dollars.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

I know its a hard transition to make, but come your spring semester, it'll just feel like home. It's like high school only a little harder. Make friends with whoever you can, but don't get caught up in the party scene; your GPA will fall fast.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Outgoing, ambitious, people. Anyone who will show great school pride!
