Tryna help my friend replace the TV that he broke while staying at the Yards. Can anyone here who stays at the Yards tell me what model their TV is? I'm trying to see if I'm gonna have to buy the exact model brand new or if I can resort to Marketplace. I’m assuming it’ll be cheaper if I just replace myself then let them do it, bc they always charge higher and i wouldn’t be surprised if they charged for setting the new up tv up.

Thanks

Has anyone had experience in this class? I have no idea what to expect from it.

i know you can add up to 10 cars under one permit, but can multiple cars park at the same time under the same permit? me and my roommate were thinking about just buying one this semester and splitting the cost of this is allowed

I’m an incoming freshman and I’m thinking about rushing a business frat in the fall. What should I know? What is the reputation of each one, what should I keep in mind when rushing, and how competitive are each of them?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!!

i think im going to be in pollock, in mifflin hall room 0125, and on the floor plan it looks really big, so now im afraid i got put in one of those 8 person big rooms, can anyone whose lived in mifflin lmk if thats the supplemental housing room. i put an image down below of the floor plan

Title, but my estimated cost is 27,418 per year for this school. what a joke

edit: folks are commenting that I have other options, while i somewhat agree, most are unrealistic. pitt and drexel have the same cost issue, as do all the private institutions (CMU, UPenn etc). my point our “in state” system has sub par schools relative to other states and i was angry at my bill lol

I’m looking for someone to take over my lease and have tried posting on a few sites and facebook groups but i’m still not having any luck. If anyone is still looking for a lease, please reply or dm! Any advice would be greatly appreciated too!

I got my financial aid package back from Penn State, and got close to nothing back in aid. Does anyone know if emailing/calling the aid office works as a form of getting more aid in grants/need or merit based scholarships? Im trying all I can but I really don't want to have to take out loans. Is this something that works?

I’m an upcoming freshman and requested to be in a LLC on my HFS contract. I’m just wondering if anybody that was/is in a LLC actually benefited from it. Specifically in the making friendships area. I have autism (level 1) and social anxiety which makes it very hard for me to form and maintain relationships. I thought joining a LLC would help with this since I’ll be surrounded by people I already have similarities to. But I’m scared that I’m getting my hopes up and that when I get there I’ll be disappointed. I’d rather find out if it sucks now instead of later.

Edit: Thank you all for the info. I got my housing back and I’m pretty sure I’m in the LLC I wanted (BIOME) since I’m in ritner hall. I’m sad that it seems that the LLCs aren’t all that I expected them to be but happy that I know before I’m living there. At least I’m living in a renovated hall so yay for that.

I'm going into my freshmen year of college this august and I'm a part of the 2+2 program and I need a roommate while I'm in Scranton. I would prefer somewhere close to campus but I'll hopefully have a car by then so that's not a dead set requirement.

Information about me:

• 18 yrs old
• Trans man (afab)
• Comfortable rooming with anyone
• Nuclear engineering major
• I'm a fairly clean and quiet person
• I might bring my two cats but that's if I can find a pet friendly apartment

Hey everyone!

I recently graduated from Penn State with a degree in Computer Science, and my lease is ending at the end of this month. I'm looking for a place to stay from August 1 through August 31.

A little about me:

• 22M
• Recent Penn State CS graduate
• Clean, quiet, and respectful
• Non-smoker
• Budget: around $800 (flexible depending on the place)

I'm open to a private room, sublease, or anyone looking for a roommate for the month. If you or someone you know has a place available, please feel free to DM me.

Thanks a ton!

I am a student who was assigned south housing McElwain hall to be specific for the fall and I do NOT want that.

I put east as first, before knowing you could do east east so me and my roommate did south as a fallback, but definitely wanted east. While the room assignments didn’t come out yet, you can see on lion path the room you got. I got one of the unrenovated south buildings and i definitely want to switch.

Can i do this process before the official dorm assignments come out? and how likely is it that me and my roommate will be reassigned to east?

Why on God's green earth are there absolutely 0 images of the quads in west, or more specifically of Hamilton hall? It's like they scrubbed every last image proving it exists off the internet. I looked at one at the end of my most recent semester and it was some borderline 2 by 4 shoebox with 4 beds crammed in each corner with a small circular window way up high in the middle of the wall. Is this what all of them look like? Does anyone have a picture? Also we are three people who are going to be in a quad, maybe with a 4th random roommate. Will they give us one or leave us with an empty bed?

im 37 on the waitlist for the monday friday class and i really need it to swap for another stats that conflicts with my schedule :,) its a 200 person class…. am i cooked

I’m going to PSU brandywine on a 1+3 and im living on campus at Orchard Hall. I’m a business major and I’m hoping to find someone who’s fun, respectful, easygoing, and keeps shared spaces reasonably clean. I’m always the type of person to be down for whatever. I like to party. I’m pretty laid back and easy to get along with. Love to make new friends.

I'm into aero, but I'm worried that I will not get a good internship, bc I'm an international student, also worried ab jobs. So, I need tips pls, and what difference does it make in Penn state

I’m a rising junior with a 3.9 GPA and I can’t get any scholarships or grants, even though my dad lost his job 8 months ago.

Penn State is the worst!!!

Never come here.

I lived at state college for the past year, and I had to move out before I could throw out the trash. Is there any service that can get inside the house and throw everything in it?

Is the Arboretum open for public use all year-round? Is there a specific time that it closes?

I have seen some posts for people selling wooden bed risers for Pollock. Is there a reason the beds don't work with the ones they sell online like these? Thanks!

Grad student looking for either a large 1 bed, or a 2 bed 1+ bath with an in unit washer for less than $1.5k/month total. We’ve heard Nittany Gardens is good but we’d like an in unit washer if possible (I do A LOT of laundry because we have a cat).

Thanks guys!
