Pennsylvania State University vs. University of Connecticut

<p>These are my main options right now. I am in undecided for both schools as i am not sure what I want to do, but leaning towards something associated with Business and/or Communications. </p>

<p>Huge sports and entertainment fan, would like a school with lots of stuff to do in spare time. </p>

<p>Is one more reputable than the other? </p>

<p>What are the significant differences?</p>

<p>Are you going this fall, or are you making a list to apply to?</p>

<p>Is one of these in-state for you? How affordable are they for you?</p>

<p>PSU is both more reputable and has a better location in that it is in a real town while UConn has virtually no town and is just in the boonies.</p>

<p>Penn State but not if it costs more.</p>

<p>I’ve been accepted to both, starting this fall. I’m OOS for both, from NJ.</p>

<p>eromano: PSU has amazing alumni connections in both business and communications…no idea about UConn in those areas…</p>

<p>are you a direct admit to Smeal? or undecided?</p>

<p>I’m undecided at both schools. Not sure if I want to do Business, Communications, or a combination of both for my career. My interests are in the fields of Sports and Entertainment (Movies+ Television). I’d like to be something like an Agent, or maybe working on the business side of either sports or movies.</p>
