I discovered Pennsylvania college of Technology (PCT) in my junior year of high school. I immediately fell in love with its seclusion in the quaint town of Williamsport. The campus itself is beautiful and well maintained. This landscape hygiene makes an inviting campus for students and teachers alike to follow their passions. Many of the teachers at PCT have a burning passion for what they teach. Additionally, there are many options for students regarding majors. Surprisingly, as a smaller school, PCT has a lively campus life. With dozens of student organizations, there is always something going on for students to do. Unfortunately, however, the city of Williamsport, although quaint, is quite boring. There is not much to do outside of the college. However, that is not to fault the college. Overall, PCT was the right pick for me and I have not regretted it once.
Penn College is a phenomenal school. The professors are knowledgeable, respectful, and are willing to give you more of their time if its needed. They maintain professionalism while keeping things light and fun. This school is also great at accommodating people with disabilities and has a very diverse student body. This makes for a unique experience, as you can learn about other cultures just from your classmates. The school also offers a variety of clubs and events to attend. While the school is strong academically, it is unfortunately a big "party school". It is also located in Williamsport which is not the safest city in the area, but the school does a great job at keeping campus safe. The school even has events that are designed to show students how to be safe on and around campus, which is crucial. My favorite part of this school was that it really celebrates the differences between people and shows that education should be fun.
I regret ever going to this school. The entire 3 years that i've been here has been miserable. The campus is boring, they do little activities after classes and post them in the bathroom stalls but they're all childish and stupid. If you live off campus you will NOT make ANY friends. The people who go here are so socially awkward and weird so it's not even like you can make friends in your classes. Literally have not seen or been to 1 party because i'm not from here, the professors are incredibly boring and don't teach anything hands on even though it's supposed to be a hands on school. Your 2-year associate degree will turn into a 4-year associate degree because they false advertise. There are no parking spots but they will ticket you for parking in staff parking because you'd rather not be late for a class. If you want an actual college experience just go to penn state. It's actually fun there. This place gave me depression & anxiety. Stay far away
