How are the following college for physics programs Penn State, Widener, Drexel, Blooms burg, and Carnegie Mellon University. Are there any other good colleges for physics major in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia area.
robphy said:In addition to your list, you might want to also look into:
u. pittsburgh, u. penn, temple, penn state erie (behrend),
swarthmore, bucknell, bryn mawr, haverford, dickinson
...in NJ, near Philadelphia, there's also princeton
kuahji said:I'm surprised to see Dickinson on the list... I live about 10 minutes from there, perhaps I'll check it you too. Though its suppose to be pretty expensive. I think the SAT score average or something to get in there is like a 1300 or something (classic score).
