"I believe in the value of a Penn State education. As an adult transfer student I have attended two other universities and Penn State has by far surpassed each one in providing a uniquely superior educational experience. When I came to Penn State I chose to study business management and marketing because I had taken interest in the management subject through my experience at work."
