“I love UPenn’s city‑meets‑Ivy‑feel, how many professors are leaders in their field, and how easy it is to step out of class into internships and Philly culture, but from a past‑student view I’ll say the intensity of the workload, the competitive energy, and the high cost can feel heavier than they sound during the glossy campus tour.”
