Penn is intensely greek so if you're not interested in that, be
prepared. Tons of great bars and restaurants --besides New York,
Philadelphia is the city of great restaurants by far. However, if you
are not rich (though if you are at Penn you probably are,) then this is
a moot point for you cause the good restaurants are never cheap. No
dating scene--you hook up or you marry the person you meet, very little
in between. Clubs are popular with students, I think they're sketchy.
Penn truly is very social compared to other Ivies but again, beware--its
a Greek based system and after freshman year, you may get very sick of
it. There are a lot of people NOT in the greek system but these people
generally dont party much in general. (Well, their idea of partying is
pretty lukewarm.) Its very difficult to find people interested in the
city life--they exist but they are few and far between. Also, Penn is
NOT diverse, although it is more diverse then, say, Princeton, etc.
