IUP is a mid sized school set in the middle of no where. This is NOT for a student who wants an active town. It is in a depressed part of Western/Central PA and is depressing. Winters are awful. Do not go if you like urban/metropolitan things to do. There is NOTHING to do. There is a big problem with violence and drugs. Many fights, and I did not feel safe. the people were unfriendly, do not hold doors, etc. There are a lot of urban/thug kids here that I can't believe got into any college. It seems like IUP takes anyone. It was very easy to get into. Instead of being encouraged to go to class, people encourage you to skip. I had a bad year and ended up depressed and anxious. I come from an upper middle class town and background, and felt like I went to the hood. It was not what I expected.
