Why did you decide to go to this school?

This school offered both of my majors, they had the total college experience, beautiful campus, lots of organizations, and it was all at an extremely reasonable cost!

I was skeptical of going to IUP at first, but I decided to go when I visited the school and completely fell in love with the campus. When you go, you know. IUP felt like home to me. Now, as a junior, being at school feels like home more than my actual house does. Your friends become your second family. Other than the campus, IUP has a wonderful teaching program, one of the best. My teachers have held conferences globally to discuss the design of our program for early childhood and special education. Lastly, I picked IUP because it's close to home. Being an hour away is just enough that I am independent, but close enough that if I forget something, I don't have to panic. For example, before break I left my bag with my computer charger, cell phone charger, and license in my apartment. It wasn't really that big of a deal for my dad and I to drive back up. Aside from the huge waste of gas, doing things like that doesn't tend to be a big deal.
