Why Penn State
'I chose Penn State for their academic programs and because it is the number one school for job recruiting after graduation. There are so many majors in my field to choose from, and it is ranked in the top 50 for the best public universities for many reasons. I chose Penn State for gymnastics because the facilities are awesome, tutors and help are available, and the gymnastics program is great overall and has been for years. Also, the campus is really pretty and the community around it is safe and all about the school itself.'
