Summer 2020 Pennsylvania College Road Trip – A Very “Agreeable” Place to Study
Pennsylvania is a little bit like Ohio when it comes to students from the Southeast choosing their preferred college location – it’s missing an identity. But that missing identity, in our opinion, gives Southeastern high school students an opportunity to apply with less regional admissions competition. The options in Eastern Pennsylvania are terrific. On this road trip, we visited the gorgeous campuses of Franklin & Marshall, Kutztown University, Lehigh University, and Lafayette College.
