<p>Yes, I know. Stop complaining about this because it will happen a lot but...
I just told my best friend that I had just submitted my app for ED and he says... "to which location? university park?"</p>
<p>ok I thought this would get some replies so I shall bump it :P (if you didnt know... university city is in reference to penn STATE!)</p>
<p>No. University City is Penn's neighborhood. Penn State is in University Park.</p>
<p>Man up. At least you can root for a highly ranked football team.</p>
<p>well technically penn state university park is in state college, haha</p>
<p>gah i meant university park... ive just been sick and right now my brain is the equivalent to mush and JHS i'm not sure if you got what i was saying so...
i applied to UPenn and my friend thought I was talking about Penn State because I referred to it as Penn but w/e this was more annoying then)</p>
<p>i know the feeling. i just laugh it off. those who actually care about college will know the difference between university of pennsylvania and penn state. from my experience</p>
<p>what's wrong with people thinking you go to Penn State? Do you need the Ivy League name as an ego-booster or something? If not, then just let it slide. Roll with it!</p>
<p>it's not actually. penn deserves more than just being confused with penn state. it's the school i wanna go to. and honestly, i don't want ppl to mistake it for penn state.</p>
<p>I guess that's a valid point...but it's not like Penn's reputation hinges on what you tell a single, uninformed person haha</p>
<p>i really don't meet too many people who confused PSU and Penn, mainly because I live in PA near philly. Personally, I love both schools and I think people should be able to recognize the difference by just hearing Penn or Penn State. It's the same as like Ohio State and Ohio, but I guess Penn is just a little more prestigious than those schools haha.</p>
<p>yea that's why i usually just laugh it off. lol i don't start screaming at them and vent or somethin haha</p>
