<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>So i am from Dubai, I want to attend PSU and am heavily contemplating it..</p>

<p>However, I want to ask the PSU students about the party tag that is attached to this school.</p>

<p>I am Muslim and do not drink at all, Dont get me wrong I like to attend parties and stuff but within a limit..</p>

<p>Secondly, again i know its a dumb qt but are students here serious?, because the ppl that go here from Dubai are all ppl that sorta have chosen PSU for the wrong reasons(Party School).I am not a studious person, but would like to maintain a pretty decent average..</p>

<p>Any Advice comments is welcome, hopefully what u will say will help me make my decision..</p>

<p>PS; I got admitted at Smeal....</p>

<p>I actually noticed the same thing–people seem to only want to go here because of the party reputation. It really is kind of sad. I also do not intend to drink/party too much and I am going to Penn State. There are definitely going to be those people that aren’t going to take the school aspect seriously, but most people, I think, care at least a little bit about their grades as they are paying thousands of dollars to go there. I’m in Smeal too, btw.</p>

<p>While I am sure that the party reputation does attract some people - not everyone chooses PSU for that reason.</p>

<p>Is there a special living option for business students?</p>

4

<p>yes there is, thankfully. I definitely don’t want to live in East.</p>

<p>ya lets hope what u said might be true…</p>

<p>but can some PSU current student confirm this please?</p>

<p>Hey internation. I’m Muslim too. Don’t worry about the whole party seen. There is plenty you can do without having to party, check this out: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/penn-state-university-park/650887-some-things-do-psu-non-party-animal-those-tired-being-one.html?highlight=late+night[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/penn-state-university-park/650887-some-things-do-psu-non-party-animal-those-tired-being-one.html?highlight=late+night&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Hope it helps.</p>
