College Advice |
Question: How is Millersville University?I have been accepted into Millersville Univerity and i was wondering if anyone knew if the college is good. Is a degree from this school recognised? How are the classes whats the work load like. My biggest gripe is the location of the school. Its slap-bang in the middle of rural Pennsylvania far from the nearest urban center. How are the people in Millersville/community they seem friendly to me. Anyway would it be worth my while going to this college or should i still consider the others i have applied for in Baltimore and New York and DC.25 months ago
Best AnswerLancaster, Harrisburg and Philly are close by. One can take Amtrak to Philly. The sports are Division II except for Wrestling which is Division I. The school appears to have a good rep - In 1983, the school was known as Millersville State College. |
