<p>just want to know who else is planning on attending allegheny this fall? hopefully we can get to know each other before we meet. feel free to share your ideas</p>
<p>Most likely, I'll be attending Allegheny in the fall... although I am completely lost about how I'm going to pay $35,300 a year.... :/</p>
<p>did u apply for financial aid?</p>
<p>I think I might be at Allegheny this fall also. I'm only expected to pay 4K which was the best offer I got from any school so it's the logical and best financial choice for me</p>
<p>that's good to hear..i think we need more activity here. I am looking forward to atteding Allegheny in the fall. i haven't visited but have heard great things about it from my college counselor who used to work there sometime ago. if any of you visit..please share ur opinion. thanks</p>
<p>I'm planning on visiting soon and I am so excited. My friend and I agreed to room together next year so I'm really looking forward to going!</p>
<p>i would really appreciate if you could take some pictures of the campus. there aren't many pictures on the website. I want to get a good look at the campus. its not necessary...just in case u do. thanks</p>
<p>My son is doing the sneak peek thing today! I recently bought a dvd about the campus that you might be interested in from collegiate choice video. It's the walking tour of the Allegheny done by a real student tour guide. The camera person is not a professional which made it seem even more real. The person from Collegiate choice asks the tour guide a lot of questions while they are walking; questions that anyone would ask and you could tell that the answers were not scripted. I think this was the next best thing to taking the real tour. Would also be good if you've seen a lot of colleges and need something to remind of which college was which!</p>
<p>i went to collegiate choice videos website...but it seems like i can't use a credit card to order vhs or video. is there anywhere else i can get a allegheny dvd online where they accept credit cards. thanks</p>
<p>moinsyed - Just print out the form and send a check. I got mine back within a week. They ship really quick.</p>
<p>My son got back from Allegheny last night. He said the college was nice but not for him. After all of our searching and looking for the classes that would interest him and some possible majors, his biggest negatives for Allegheny were bad dorms, food and a perception that there is not enough to do. I guess if everything else is equal, then he can make those things the tipping points.</p>
<p>what other colleges is ur son looking at?</p>
<p>Besides Allegheny, he's been accepted at York College of PA, Towson University (MD), Millersville University of PA, Roanoke College (VA), Principia College(IL), Champlain College(VT). We're off to see Roanoke tomorrow. Principia is where is sister goes to college and has by far the best dorms I've ever seen and also the highest academic score (92) according to the Princeton Review website of the colleges he's been accepted to. Allegheny's academic score was 88. Oh, well, there is a college out there for every student and in a week or so, I'll know which one suits my son!</p>
<p>hope he finds his fit.</p>
<p>courtney 1121, do u know when u are visiting?</p>
<p>Hopefully soon. I already sent in my deposit so I'm definitely going, so I probably won't be able to visit until the end of April.</p>
<p>My boyfriend and I were suppose to go up to Thiel to visit and then check out Allegheny on Tuesday but my mom made my prom dress fitting for that day, so we'll have to figure something else out.</p>
<p>My roommate visited twice already and loves it. So I'm kinda going on her word. I trust her though.</p>
<p>that's good to hear..i just had some questions about how the dorms are and the food.. that's all i need to know..i am sure both are bearable. would appreciate it if u could get ur roommate's opinion on them.. thanks</p>
<p>i did trustee scholars weekend..ive visited a few colleges and i thought the dorms (at least in baldwin where i stayed) were nice. my host student said the food in the brooks cafeteria is really bad but mckinleys has like an assortment of grilled food mexican italian healthy food all that stuff..so you never have anything to worry about..ive visited the school twice..its kind of an open campus and i was looking more for an enclosed one but its still really nice..there isnt a lot of walking which is also nice because im lazy..you can ask me any questions</p>
<p>how did u find the dorm rooms? the condition they were in? the size? the atmosphere?</p>
<p>do u use aim or msn?</p>
