<p>I am trying to decide between Penn State UP or UDel. Undecided major. Accepted to PSU Smeal business, undecided with $6000/year merit for 4 years...UDel accepted me general undecided no merit $. Tuition is basically the same, PSU being less now because of scholarship. Think I want a career in Fashion marketing.... UDel has a great fashion program, PSU has marketing but the business school is top notch and recruiting is amazing from what I hear... UDel is only 2 hours away, PSU is 4... Could really use advice... Visited and loved both.</p>
<p>What is your in-state university…</p>
<p>If not, I would take the money…but your transportation cost will be higher at Penn State.</p>
<p>Rutgers…accepted to Rutgers Business, but after visiting it didn’t compare to the other two schools…I didn’t like the multiple campuses and bus hopping… It was just ok…academically I am sure it is great, but it’s not for me. I am hearing that PSU is the better investment because of job placement, and again, the scholarship actually makes it less than UDel… And yes, transportation cost is greater at PSU, but I don’t think it’s that much concern to be a major factor… I think it’s the fashion program that has me somewhat excited at UDel, but if I change my mind, did I give up a better opportunity at PSU?</p>
<p>Which is more important in Fashion Marketing–a degree in fashion or in business/marketing? My “uneducated” guess would be that you would be better off majoring in Fashion at UDel with a minor in Marketing or Business. But I don’t think Penn State would be a bad choice either!</p>
<p>Thanks WaitingInCPA. I guess there are no guarantees for future employment… The practical side of me says put the money into a Penn State business degree…just wish PSU had Fashion.</p>
<p>If you were my student, Smeal FTW</p>
<p>Not to throw a wrinkle into things, but doesn’t Drexel have a Fashion program? Plus as a co-op school you would graduate with real work experience too.</p>
<p>Yes, you are right. But I want the BIG school college experience, with football and Greek LIfe, etc…</p>
<p>Its too late to think about Drexel now unless the OP wants to take 1 gap year. </p>
<p>"I want the BIG school college experience, with football and Greek LIfe, etc… "</p>
<p>Thats a description of all the Big 10 and Big 12 schools…</p>
<p>I recommend Penn State since your only 2 options are UDel and Penn State</p>
<p>In my opinion, PS-UP is the better school. Plus with a scholarship, and acceptance to Smeal, I think the best choice is PSU</p>
<p>Collegeeager, I appreciate your opinion. And my parents agree with you!</p>
<p>Oh, and XtremePower, thanks for your insight,too!</p>
<p>Definitely Penn State.</p>
