Pennsylvania State University-Main Campus Top Questions

An extremely shy person should not attend this school, because people are very group-oriented, so if you cannot associate with a lot of people it is hard to find a place to fit in.

An outgoing, fun loving person should go to penn state. Someone who like to have fun but when it time to get some work done they can buckle down and get it done.

If you are someone who is worried about big classes or thinks they won't be able to handle a big college this school isn't for you.

I believe every can and should attend this university. Penn State offer a variety of majors to chose from. There are also numerous amounts of clubs, organizations, fraternities, and sororities. This allows everyone a chance to find their own niche in a very large school. Since Penn State is an honored university, the work-load is intense, but it is not impossible. If you can juggle schoolwork with a social life, you can succeed at Penn State.

Penn State would be the wrong decision for anyone who would feel overwhelmed in large classes as a freshman. The class sizes range from 20 to 600 students per section and that can be too much for some to take. An important thing to remember is that professors always keep office hours and there are Teaching Assistants available to help all students when it is necessary.

Get in shape early before you start drinking- the hotter you are the more likely you'll get whatever you want

i think my school has a little for everyone

The kind of person that should not attend this school is someone who does not like snow, cold temperatures, studying for exams, or school spirit. There is always a party going on to celebrate Penn State's victory in something.

I believe that this school has a lot of diversity in which almost any personality type or ethnic background can feel comfortable. The only students who I would recommend to definitely not attend Penn State University are students who want to live in a very urban area and those who do not like large lecture halls. Many first and second year classes are extremely large.

The students who prefer a smaller location. Someone who is not friendly oriendted.

A person who is shy and afraid of big crowds should not attend this school. If you need a small classroom setting, I would also recommend trying another school.

A person who is an introvert and not self motivated.

This is a learning university, not a teaching one. This means that someone who is not willing to take learning upon themselves will be at a loss.

People that do not like large classroom settings. It is a very large school, easy to get sucked into the crowd. Be yourself. It really is a great place.

A person who isn't dedicated.. and someone who isn't looking for a big school with a lot of oppotunity. Penn State is the best school ever!

The kind of person that shouldnt attend this school is the kind of person with no self control. You must also be open to the vast cultural differences and varied learning experiences that are presented to you in your time at University Park.

stupid ones

A person should NOT attend PSU if they are hermits & don't enjoy people.

Someone who intends to waste their college time. There are so many educational opportunities here; to waste them would be horrible. The classes can be demanding, so there is a necessity for people to buckle down and study. Espect to work hard, but have fun at the same time.

One who does not have any school spirit. However, I've seen a little bit of almost every kind of person on this campus.

Anyone unprepared to attend lectures religiously and spend at least two hours of unsupervised self-study for every hour in a lecture, should not consider enrolling at Pennsylvania State University. On the other hand, anyone who prefers to focus solely on academics, without regard for extracurricular activities and sports, should also reconsider coming to the university. Finally, individuals with racial and ethnic prejudices should not consider attending this univeristy because of it's commitment to a prejudice-free living environment.

Someone with a negative attitude and low motivation.

If you have no interest in social activites do not attend this school.

Someone not disciplined and not focused on their education. If you think you will just slide through without any effort then you need to reconsider. I did very well in high school but I certainly have to study, concentrate and work harder here then I ever have.

someone who likes a small school

Someone who likes to be in a faced paced environment that also enjoys being around people

people who are scared of big school and big classes

Anyone can attend this school. Granted the school is 85{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} Caucasian, that doesn't mean that the student body is ignorant to the situation. There are so many opportunities that this school provides that I think there is a place for everyone. Whether you want to be an Art Ed major or study in the new Law facility that was just put up, everyone has the chance to succeed.

A person who strictly believes in studying all the time, is entirely career focused, and doesn't wish to meet other people.

I think this school is large enough and offers so much that any type of person can attend Penn State without the feeling of being left out.

Students who are not sure about their career goals should not attend this school.

The type of person who should not attend this school is someone who does not like to be challenged. The classes are big, and almost all students here to are always giving it their best in all their classes. If you do not wish the best for your future, then this is not the school for you. Also, if you are not a person who is proud of not only what you achieve, but also what the other students in their school can do, then Penn State is not the school for you. As they say, WE Are, Penn State.

The kind of person who should not attend Penn State University, University park is a student who does not like crowds, or large classes. University Park is a very large and busy place, so if you do not like crowds this is not the place for you.

A person who doesn't like big schools, doesn't want to pay fees for every little thing (which is why tuition is going up each year), and who doesn't enjoy the aspect of college football and how it causes a frenzy throughout the school when the season comes around.

Someone focused and goal oriented. Someone who love football and going to games. Must be prepared for alot of drinking on and off campus. If you don't know what you want to major in, you better know before the end of your freshman year. Someone who likes alot of snow and can handle walking really far in bad weather.
