Cooper:
-Grading: Year 1/2: P/F Year 3/4: H/HP/P/F
-Tuition: $44793
-living: $1200 a month
-Ranking: Some internal ranking (not 100% sure, think its tierd ranks)
(but not on transcript i think and you don't know about it)
-Environment: Urban
-Matched well and broad
-New school (2012 start, 2016 first graduating class)
less affiliated
Penn State:
-Grading: Year 1/2/3: P/F Year 4: H/HP/P/F (IDK how this will affect my match chances bc
less grades on transcript but also less stress)
-Tuition: $55504
-living: $630 a month
-Ranking: No internal ranking
-Environment: Rural (trains to philly and NYC)
-Matched well and broad
-more affiliated
Both are great programs and the only cons for each is that Cooper is less affiliated bc it is such a new program and I know that the longer that a school is around the better but I also like that its close to a city. Penn is in a rural environment and I am deff a city person so IDK how I will like that but I like how it is P/F 3rd year but i'm not sure if thats a good thing or not. (cost of attendance is very similar for both programs so the cost is not a problem for me)
Overall I would love to get some insight from people about both programs!! I have no idea how I am going to choose which place to go
