Categories Comments Campus Safety I have never had a problem with things on campus.
What to do for fun Bowling on Thursday nights and what ever you can find.
Food and Dining I was not a big fan of the cafe food, but I am also a very picky eater.
Dorm Life Living on campus is different for each person, but the dorm hall in which you live can also help too.
Academic Rigor Classes are moderately easy depending on your major as well as the professor that you are taking it with each course.
Tips for prospective students Manage your time wisely. Be careful on what you do on the weekend because it is a small town.
In three sentences William Penn is a very athlete based university. Very few students you meet at the school will not be affiliated with a sport. The student population is not large, nor are the classes which helps when you need help from a professor.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Penn has a great campus safety. They employ a whole staff just for security and more for dorm saftey. They offer twenty-four-seven service to call if anyone needs it. Say your car breaks down and you need to walk to your dorm and you're scared, they will walk with you. They are great about it.
Greek Life Greek is of course a big part of Penn, as of any college. They have Greek Week and their usual Greek scouting. The Greek groups are also involved with the school quite well and are always willing to help out.
What to do for fun Penn always has activities for students. Penn has a whole building dedicated to Penn's activities. The PAC has activities about once a month and tries to get all of the students involved, I remember a major event was Pennstock. Games are always a huge thing for Penn. Every student goes to watch the games. There are also some cool restaurants to go to with some friends around the square in town.
Food and Dining The food at Penn is pretty good. They usually have specific nights for food such as Asian food and Spanish food. They celebrate holidays and cook for that. The cooking staff is really nice and do a great job with cooking.
Dorm Life Dorm life at Penn is strict. They have an checking in at nine policy. During the school week, which includes Sundays, you must check out at twelve. However during the weekend days you can be in the rooms until two. They also have quiet hours from ten at night till ten the next morning. Living in the dorms is definitely an experience, you meet a lot of different people.
Academic Rigor Penn is a strict school for grades because of all the sports players. Penn has tutors to help, Penn also has the ARC, which is the Academic Resource Center which is where you can find computers and the tutors to help with specific classes, and a good library.
Tips for prospective students Make sure at Penn you focus on homework and do all of it that you can. Also be sure that you show up to class everyday. This is especially important because most teachers don't give quizzes to help the students prepare for tests, so showing up and paying attention gets the higher scores on tests.
In three sentences William Penn is a good school if you're focusing on strictly sports. Penn has a good faculty willing to do as much as possible so that you can succeed in your future careers and also during school. A well rounded school, with plenty of diversity.
