Most people who know me think I chose Edinboro University because my AMAZING long-time boyfriend goes to Edinboro, but that's not exactly the case. Of course I wanted to go to college with him, but I didn't choose it because of that. There were some other things that played a part in my decision. With all the parts put together it's as if choosing Edinboro wasn't even a choice, it was a given.

This place felt like home to me since the first time I stepped onto campus. I've visited campuses before but this is the only one that ever made me feel at home. I remember coming to campus with my boyfriend and even though I didn't go to this university, or any yet for that matter, it felt so right to me-- I could see myself spending everyday there. I mean of course it was cheaper than most so that was a major plus, too.

Don't get me wrong. I probably would have gone to whatever college my boyfriend went to anyway because he is my best-friend and he helps me through everything including my depression. However, I didn't just chose Edinboro University because of him-- I actually really like it. Most people complain about it but to me it's wonderful. The campus is beautiful and the teachers are sweet.

I say it chose me because it had everything I wanted. I wanted to be in Pennsylvania preferably close to home, it's on the less expensive side, I wanted to feel like I belong there, plus I'm able to go to the same college as my boyfriend. I didn't have to worry about if it had my major because my major is pretty common. I also liked the dorms. With all of those reasons it was hard to ignore.
