<p>I'm a 3rd year Australian student applying for exchange to UPenn. I'm in the final acceptance phase of my application and need to put in a residential plan.
We don't have college programs or sororities, or even the off-campus residency options which the US have - so i need HUGE amounts of advice. Which residential option is best???</p>
<p>As an exchange student, I'm looking for a really social option (i only need to pass my subjects while on exchange.. so bring on the partying).
What is 'the quad'? As far as I can tell it is a cluster of colleges - which ones are these?</p>
<p>Thanks for your help :-)</p>
