Review of Penn State Extension

World Class institution ranked number 1 in the nation by Wall Street Journal for getting you a job after graduation. The reason is students that go to PSU actually have to work for their grades. That's right you actually have to wake up very early each day get dressed and walk a mile to class in all kinds of weather. Then once you arrive in class the competition is fierce. You are surrounded by some of the best and the brightest students in the world. This is not a place to get coddled you have to get up, get out, compete, and be motivated to achieve each and every day. Another extremely important point is that you need to declare your major early and more importantly you need to pick a strong Major that will land you a job> for example >Information Science and Technology, the relatively new Computer Science school. At PSU there is something for everyone, its a WONDERFUL university but it is what you make of it. If you are looking for a high paying job upon graduation , Then look no further. If your looking for a university that coddles its student's like a day care then pick a much smaller school like Villanova, way more expensive but you get more attention from your professors. Penn State professors are more like a real world boss. Your expected to be there every day on time ready to work. Hope this helps.
