University Ambassador Bio

 

 

 

Name: Susmita
Major: Double major in Business Management and Psychology
Year: Senior
Hometown: Rockville, MD
 


Tell me about your major:
Business management concentrates on all levels of management from sales manger to CEO.  The major is very "hands on" and case studies are common due to the connection between real life and what we learn in class.  Psychology is very broad.  There are classes that range from Abnormal Psychology, to Marriage and Family, to Addictions and Industrial Psychology, which focuses on organizational behavior and such.

Why did you become an Ambassador?
To learn more about the school and all of the opportunities it has to offer us, and to relate to prospective students about home sickness, and anything else that their senior year is stressing them out with. Also, it looks great on resumes!

Are you a member of any clubs or organizations?
I am the editor in chief of the school newspaper, The Text.  I am an active member in Asian Cultural Association, and a member of Psych Association.

What do you like about Philadelphia University?
There's so much that I like!  I can say hands down, our faculty is amazing.  I love how we are in the city, but not really in the city.  Food is not too shabby.  The friends I met here are priceless.

Do you have any advice for prospective students on tour?
Though we don't' expect you to remember every single detail about the school - which in most cases you will not, try to pay closer attention to information about your major, compare them with other schools you are applying to.  Also, make a pro and con list about your school.

What do you like to do in your free time?
Read, write, and play videogames.

Do you like Philadelphia cheesesteak? If so, where can I find the best cheesesteak?
Yes! Pat's and Chubby's!
