| Full-time undergraduate program |
While West Philadelphia is a terrible neighborhood, Penn campus itself
is safe with security guards and safety phones everywhere. East of the
campus is downtown Philadelphia, a beautiful historic town with nice
shopping, landmarks, and museums, Penn housing is really nice- there
are special freshman dorms, and upper class high risers. There is a
vibrant Greek life with a lot of sorority and fraternity housing, and
off campus housing is likewise popular. On campus housing has immediate
internet access and special movie channels on tv. Each highrise has
cardiovascular machines on one floor, laundry machines on every other
floor, and a commissary on every bottom level. Penn is fully equipped
with athletic facilities- 2 Olympic sized pools, tennis courts (indoor
and outdoor), track, weight gym and cardiovascular gym, aerobics
classes. Many students attend gyms in downtown Philadelphia.
