This review is about the campus of Penn, not the academics or admissions. The campus is located in the heart of Philadelphia, University City in West Philly to be precise. Even though it is an urban campus, most of what students need are within the boundaries of the campus or within a block or two. The architecture is Late Gothic Revival, Tudor Revival, and Romanesque. The campus is mostly safe but it is a city so best to stay aware. Locust Walk is the main thoroughfare throughout the heart of the campus and there one will find campus buildings, fraternities and sororities, sculpture, dining halls, and plenty of spots to stop and relax. There are always students, faculty, staff, and visitors moving about. Parking is not easy in the area but you may get lucky with a 2/3 hr spot just make sure you pay the meter! Tickets are issued within moments of violation so driver beware!
