This place sucks
Overall 1.9
This is the worst college I could have possibly chosen. The people are all weird, especially the boys (also its 90% boys). I knew I hated it before the first day even started. Buildings are dark and gloomy. HORRIBLE area, mckeesport is full of crime and there's no places to go or eat. I dread going and if I lived on campus id have dropped out

It is all about SG effing A. If you're not in a click, no one cares about you. Even if you try to make friends with people of importance, they turn their back when you need something. Events have gotten more stupid every year because the ones that run it and the whole campus are old people stuck in their ways and the campus will to decline.

Transferring out after one year. My roommate wanted to opt out after one semester. It's a large commuter campus, but with 622 total students. Smaller than my high school. I also live here, extremely unsocial and boring. I go home on the weekends. I came from a larger city & high school -PSGA is definitely not my type of school, but faculty is great
