<p>Love
-Financial Aid Package
-Best meteorology program in the country and the only school i applied to with that major,
-good social/party scene
-huge alumni base
-school spirit/ sports
-highest retention rate of the 4 schools i was accepted to (94%)
-The program im in is small so lots of personal attention and advising
-State College seems like a fun college town, easy to find interships because of intense advising, i think?
-everyone know's penn state</p>

<p>Hate
-really big but my specific college is small so maybe it wont be so bad?
-its in the middle of nowhere
-the weather sucks, but thats not too big of a deal
-many dont graduate on time
-cant pledge a frat 1st year due to scholarship
-the only thing to do is drink and party (not all bad though)
-if i dont graduate on time i go into much debt b/c my tuition scholarship ends and its and expensive school
-freshmen cant bring cars</p>
