<p>When did you guys get your application in and when did it say they made a decision?</p>
<p>3-4 days after it gave me the message "As of 11/30/2007, we have reached a decision regarding your application. You will receive this decision in the mail in approximately two weeks." By the way, I got the exact message with the same date on it as Freezenthaw.</p>
<p>I submitted my application on Nov. 8th, and then on the 21st my status changed to "As of 11/21/2007, we have reached a decision regarding your application. You will receive this decision in the mail in approximately two weeks."</p>
<p>I got my letter on the 26th (there was a weekend inbetween the two dates)... fastest turnaround I have ever heard of, I got lucky i suppose =)</p>
<p>***...today i got a letter dated november 26, 2007 saying: </p>
<p>Thank you for submitting an application for admission to Penn State. To finish evaluating your application and academic credentials, there are a few additional steps you need to take.</p>
<p>We have not received the following high school transcript information (9th, 10th, 11th) Please ask your principal or counselor to send the requested transcript.</p>
<p>This is crazy because online it says they already reached a decision as of November 30th...what should i believe?</p>
<p>that is really strange... did you send your transcripts to them?</p>
<p>if yes: they probably got them right after they sent that letter and are now working on your application</p>
<p>if no: send them asap because the website is lying to you</p>
<p>I would still call them just to make sure everything is checking out.</p>
<p>Good Luck!
Mike</p>
<p>that doesn't make sense...why would the website say that the decision was made on the 30th if it wasn't.. Gahh...</p>
<p>Yeah i sent in my stuff to my counselor over two weeks ago. I'm going to bring this note to her tomorrow...she better give the right answers or <em>smack</em></p>
<p>thanks for your help though mike</p>

<p>I think they received your transcript after they sent you that letter in the mail. I would call Penn State and ask if they have made a decision. They will tell you yes or no, however they will not tell you if you got in or not.</p>
<p>I was accepted on November 28th. I was very happy to get the letter in the mail.</p>
<p>Has anyone been rejected or deferred yet?
Has anyone been accepted for Chem E?</p>

<p>I hope I can get in! GAH I am so nervous. PSU is my #1.</p>
<p>So what do you guys think my chances are? I hear it got pretty hard to get in to this year and a lot of my school has heard back . . except me :-(</p>
<p>I have a 3.61 and an 1170
rank is 66/196
Whole family went to psu
and I applied the first week in August</p>
<p>God Damn it!!! I hate this. Applying to colleges makes me so anxious. Everyone is talking about how they sent their stuff in august and I waited until November. I wish someone told me how early people start sending stuff in. AHHH. I guess the only thing I have on my side is my Mexican Heritage and prayer. Wish me luck folks...</p>
<p>Hey, don't worry bcanales8. A few years ago, I couldn't get my son to fill out his applications until Christmas break and he got in everywhere he applied (although it took awhile to hear). I just think the longer you wait to apply, the longer it takes to hear because they have more work to process as time goes on. I seriously doubt that many people apply in August!</p>
<p>Received my acceptance to Smeal today in the mail I applied in the beginning of November. </p>
<p>650 Math, 580 CR, 660 Writing = 1890
4.35 GPA weighted</p>
<p>jas0nk1dd, is that in state or oos</p>
<p>and what (if you remember) was the date that you applied</p>
<p>i applied NOV 5th and my school sent out my transcript that day, no word yet on any decision</p>
<p>OOS (NJ)</p>
<p>I don't remember the exact date, maybe the 2nd of November. As of 11/29/2007, they reached a decision.</p>
<p>Giantfan, it usually take the school awhile to send out transcripts. My school requires a minimum of 10 days to be sent out. I sent in my transcript September 5th and it didn't arrive until October 1st. I got all my stuff in by November 30th, so I am hoping for decision within a month. Best of luck to all!</p>
<p>my friend got in today with a 4.3 and a 1120.</p>
<p>I would even go for the summer session, I think I can get into either Fall or Summer with a 3.7 weighted and a 25 ACT = 1180 SAT.</p>
