Why Penn?

<p>I know this thread has probably been posted before, but I'm having trouble finding it. =&lt;/p>

<p>Is anyone else having trouble writing a full page about why you want to attend University of Pennsylvania? I've been doing my research for hours, but I can't pull up anything really genuine other than talking about its multidisciplinary studies in genetics, neuroscience, and psychology. What would you consider special about Penn that other universities couldn't provide?</p>

<p>Anyone?</p>

<p>"What would you consider special about Penn"</p>

<p>it's sexy...(and no, i'm not joking).</p>

<p>maybe you could mention something about its location; that's something i really like about penn...</p>

<p>I talked about the fact that they seem to encourage cross-school studies, moreso than other universities I looked at (e.g. as a student in CAS, I can still do a minor in say health management from Wharton, or chemical & bioengineering from SAS)</p>

<p>i really didnt do a lot of research. I was just really boring and told them that i had opportunities at penn and i liked the number of extra curricular activities that it offered... and i got in. I think if you're just being sincere, it's good.</p>
