Knights Next Quest: Emmie Salmon

Knights Next Quest: Emmie Salmon

What schools did you apply to?

Clemson and Penn State were my top two, but I also applied to James Madison University, the University of South Carolina, the University of Pittsburgh, and Delaware. 

Where did you commit and why?

I committed to Penn State because it was best for my major. I got into all of my schools, but it was smartest to go to PSU since it has a much stronger business school than Clemson. 

What are your academic/career aspirations?

I plan on studying business at Smeal, am not sure what exactly I want to do career wise. I am hoping that all of the courses I take in my first few years at Penn State will help me decide what I want to do specifically in the business field. 

What are you most excited about next year?

I am excited about the football games and the big school feel. I did not want to go to a school that was any smaller than North Penn, and Penn State is huge. 

What is your favorite North Penn memory?

All of the football games and overall the fall at North Penn was the best. High school soccer season was my favorite time of the year and definitely what I will miss most about North Penn. But I also loved dressing up, specifically this year at the USA and blackout football games. I love big school spirit and I think that’s what really attracted me to Penn State.
