<p>I'm currently going to be a senior in high school and I'm going to visit the Penn campus next week. Aside from some of my own questions I am going to ask, do you guys suggest anything I should see/do/ask when I am there?</p>
<p>What did you guys do when you visited.. Will I be able to see a summer class?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>It's highly unlikely that you'll get to see a summer class. There aren't many of them, they're mostly small, and they don't really show you what a normal class is like. I wouldn't sweat that. On the other hand, if you find students or professors around, they may be more likely to chat with you. Go up to a random person, ask them how they're affiliated with the university, and get their advice on a restaurant or something. Most Penn people will be more than willing to share.</p>
<p>The campus is great...but will not be that busy during the summer.</p>
<p>You can tour the whole campus in 2-3 hours....it centers on Locust Walk.</p>
<p>There are lots of local stores, restaurants, museums, etc....what are you interested in?</p>
<p>I just posted this link in another forum...the future of Penn's campus: <a href="http://www.evp.upenn.edu/news/UPenn_ExecSummary.pdf%5B/url%5D">http://www.evp.upenn.edu/news/UPenn_ExecSummary.pdf</a></p>
<p>Thank you both for replying.</p>
<p>I'll be there for one day because I'm seeing a bunch of campuses in a week (Columbia, Penn, NYU, Cornell), but I'll be sure to do what you suggested.</p>
<p>Here is a 'virtual' tour of Penn to familiarize yourself with the campus: Virtual</a> Tour of Penn's Campus</p>
<p>This is information from admissions about visiting: Penn</a> Admissions: Visiting Penn</p>
<p>And here is a link to the student newspaper section on restaurants, museums, and cultural activities on campus: 34th</a> Street Magazine</p>
<p>Have fun!!</p>
