Why is Penn your dream school?

Hi everyone!
I’m a rising senior and I’m thinking seriously about applying to Penn this year. My father went to the university and also works for the school, and I’ve lived my whole life in Philadelphia, so it feels hard to not even apply to the school with all these “hooks”. At the same time, I’m having a hard time getting really excited about Penn. Because it’s so close, I’ve heard more negative things about it than most kids applying, and it feels extremely close to home. I was literally born on campus.
So I was hoping you could tell me what you love about Penn! I wana hear everything you like about penn, go crazy!

I don’t think it matters what other people like about Penn. What matters is what you like about it. What areas of study are you interested in? Think about the things you like and start making a list.
