This college is garbage from the deans to the president Milano to the food to the students... Most of the student here are black and rude and jus don't care about anything but smoking. I came here after graduating high school and they told me I could graduate in 3 years( lies) because you need to take 4 classes a term to graduate in 3 years but they don't tell you that your fasfa doesn't pay for your 4th class so your stuck with 3 a term and graduate in 4 years .this college has the dumbest security and stop all the fun and I'm not just talking about parties , I mean If your playing basketball or anything they just stop you and right you up. I started in summer of 2012 and and left after the winter term of 2013 cause I couldn't take it nomore and I'm transferring to temple university. It's a garbage school and I can't stand it, I started with 4 roommates in the dorms ( including myself) and we all left... One roommate left to kutztown, the other to Millersville and I went to temple n the 4th just dropped out... Waste of money and the area is racist... This college should just change it's motto from" you can, you will" to " you can, you will transfer"

Quite Bright
I went/am attendig Central Penn becaue I was excited to learn about how the business world works. I thought the faculty and staff would have a very business-like attitude and I could learn from experiences with them. That is not the case. The housing is dirty. When you come in for your admissions meeting/interview they will tell you that in between each term they have a cleaning crew come and clean the rooms. That is not the case. I have moved into an apartment and 2 different townhouses in the one year and both were filthy! There was hair in the corners, the bathroom was gross, a towel rack was broken and the toilet was broken before I had even moved in. I tried talking to the Housing Director about it and had my phone calls and emails ignored. When I sent a letter to the Senior Leaders asking to be released from my lease without paying the penalty I had to call them in order to find out the verdict. I left a message and received no phone call back but received an email simply stating that my appeal had been denied with no explanation as to why. There have been many cases where I am not followed up with and I feel as though I have had to "chase" down people to get an answer or explanation. Although I would say my experience with Central Penn has been 75% negative, I have made good relationships with some of the faculty and staff. They have been able to guide me as to how to handle some of the problems I've had.
