<p>I got accepted to Penn State Smeal school of business at altoona. I was told that it doesnt matter where i attend smeal. In two years i'm promised a spot in Upark if i keep up my gpa. i also have a choice of going to Rutgers new brunswick. which is better?</p>
<p>Smeal is extremely well regarded; Rutgers is seen as mediocre in Business. As long as spending two years at a branch doesn't bother you, I'd pick PSU.</p>
<p>Thanks.
Thats what i was thinking too. my only concern was that i was at altoona, but i've been convinced that it doesnt matter academically.</p>
<p>PSU is definitely way better for business. However, you would have to start at a branch campus, where as at Rutgers, you would be right in the middle of everything. Is it worth going to a branch for 2 years? If not, go to Rutgers. If it is, go to PSU.</p>
<p>It doesn't matter, because you'll transfer to University Park.</p>
<p>it really doesnt matter if you have to start out in a branch campus, smeal still looks good?
thats a relief cuz im in the same situation...</p>
<p>how is altoona? I heard it's one of the biggest branch campus'. How is the town? Any nightlife, parties...?</p>
<p>i have no idea either...ive been trying to find out about altoona for a while...</p>
