<p>I just got accepted to Penn State and now I'm wavering on my decision to go to Indiana University. I can't decide which school I want to go to! These are my top 2 schools, cost is the same for out-of-state, so that's not a factor. I live in CT, so PSU is a little closer. Which school is ranked better overall? How do I decide?!</p>
<p>What are you planning on majoring in? </p>
<p>If your majoring in Business, I would recommend Indiana’s Kelley School of Business compared to Smeal. Even though Smeal is well known and has a great name, I believe Kelley is much better in terms of ranking and name. It depends what kind of environment you want to be in also, the Northeast or Midwest? PSU does have a more Midwest feeling to it though because of the location. However, I’d say go to IU because they are a great school, know how to party, people in Indiana/Midwest are friendly, and you get frequent flier miles 
I’m from Jersey and went to Purdue and I can vouch that Indiana is a great state, even though it differs from the Northeast a lot. A lot of kids from the Northeast go to Indiana/Purdue nowadays from states like Jersey, New York, Mass., Conn., and PA.</p>
<p>I would also add Kelley Business school. Bloomington is also a great town for college students. IU has the edge in business for sure. </p>
<p>Also, IU is spending 60 million on a new addition to their business school…check it out on the web site.</p>
<p>PSU is ranked higher overall than IU, if that is what you were wanting to know.</p>
<p>Penn State just so you can occasionally drop the “state” and people, especially in the south, will think you’re from Upenn.</p>
<p>please reply to earlier question.</p>
<p>Both fine schools and pretty similar. It seems contradictory for someone to suggest IU on the basis of its both being more Midwestern AND having a lot of Easterners.</p>
<p>Indiana- Great campus and great college experience. Both are good schools, though.</p>
