Hi. I'm Sana. I'm 17 and a senior. One of my top choices for college is Penn State. It is ranked 47 in the nation and I've already been accepted. Something I love doing is getting involved in my community and I've been involved in many extra curricular activities from a young age. As well as succeeding academically, one of things I"m looking forward to in college is getting involved on campus. Penn State is one of my top choices because over there I will be able to meet many new people and gain academic success at the same time. I know I will gain a memorable experience.
