When is the best time to visit University of Pennsylvania?

Visiting University of Pennsylvania depends on a number of factors, including the season, your schedule, and a lot of uncontrollable variables. We recommend you visit University of Pennsylvania twice if you’re serious about enrolling – at least one visit should be when students are on campus and school is in session. Be sure to take note of the town of Philadelphia as well. Remember that Philadelphia is also catering to 10666 students, so think critically about whether the community would feel too big or too small for your personal liking.
