Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Schuylkill Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Dynasty

Befor coming to this school, I wish I had known how to cook. I was accoustomed to eating out, so cooking wasnt a skill I needed to acquire. Once I arrived here, I realized I was going to need to learn if I wanted to eat the food I wanted. I eventually learned how to cook and I am pretty good at it now.

what college is all about

Angela

I would have liked to have checked out the other campuses that Penn State offers. However, I do enjoy my experience at the Schuylkill Campus.

Maria

Pretty much nothing. I think it's good to go into something not knowing what to expect and it's a great learning experience for all students.

Megan

I wish I would have known the great professors this school has.

Darryl

Though I have come to rather enjoy the solotude of my surroundings, I think I would have liked to have known more about the community in terms of surrounding activities. There are limited malls, restaurants, theatres, etc. in the immediate area and the closest ones are a bit of a drive away. Without a car its near impossible to explore the area outside the city. I don't even party as much but, even a nearby dance club in the area would help to control the amount of party's that get shut down due to disturbing neighbors and such.

How much it was going to cost.

Eric

How strict Penn State is with their controlled majors, and that everything in the Penn State system is paperless so when there is a problem it is difficult to get it straightened out.
