Penn State v MSU v Purdue

College Search & Selection
1

<p>Been accepted to all three but don’t know what to do. Preferred major is chemistry or biochemistry. Visited Purdue and MSU in November and though Purdue appears to be better academically, the local atmosphere was too depressing; it seems you have to center your 4-year+ college life around campus cause there’s nothing else to do outside. On the other hand, I attended a biochemistry lecture class at MSU and was SO IMPRESSED! Haven’t visited Penn State yet (planning to do so next month) but understand is better ranked than the other two. PLEASE HELP ME DECIDE!!!</p>

<p>In terms of rankings for your major, it goes PSU, Purdue then MSU.</p>

<p>I would suggest PSU overall.</p>

<p>I would definitely go to PSU if those were my three choices. Purdue, as you noticed, is not the most appealing college environment and MSU is not as academically sound as PSU.</p>
