<p>It must be random then.
My friend, with a 3.1 (or 3.2) & a SAT of 1890 got in already & applied weeks after me.</p>
<p>My GPA is significantly higher & I have alumni.
Geez, what's taking so long?</p>
<p>And this guy at my school who I know has worse grades got in already as well.</p>
<p>still waiting with a 3.8 and 1920..so antsyy i must check like 5 times a day even though it clearly says "updated once daily"</p>
<p>retroo, what major did they apply with? was that their weighted GPA? if it was unweighted it wouldn't matter because PSU only looks at weighted. it's crazy if that's their weighted GPA and they got in fall</p>
<p>to summer271: if I got in, you definitely will get in,
since our SATs are about the same, and your GPA's higher than mine..
:D</p>
<p>summer - i have the same stats and got my acceptance last week. don't worry.</p>
<p>Well, I won't be posting on this board any more! S just got in ED to Boston University so the waiting and anxiety is over! Calling PSU this morning to have them take his name off the list so his slot can go to one of you.</p>
<p>Good Luck to all of you in your quest for Penn State -- great school and I hope you all hear soon so you can have a nice, relaxing Christmas!!</p>
<p>Thanks for telling them right away, appreciate that! GL with Boston its a great school!</p>
<p>Congratulations Myoneandonly, that's wonderful ! That is very nice of you to let PSU know your son's intentions. Best of luck to him!</p>
<p>Best of luck to you and your son. We have been waiting anxiously to hear from Penn Up. My sons GPA is 3.5- and an 1890 on SAT. Lots of college and AP classes. Good EC and work experience. His major is Crime Law and Justice .- I think that is in the Liberal Arts School. He really wants Penn State Up. What do you think his chances are? He has heard from some of his safety schools and was accepted there so at least we know he has something. Congratulations again and thanks for letting the school know so that maybe it will open a few more spots.</p>
<p>LTMREM - it looks like he is a yellow dot.</p>
<p>MyOneandOnly - Big congrats to your son. Glad that he got his first choice!</p>
<p>Just curious to what you guys think. 3.79GPA and a 1750SAT. On the bubble chart im like in between the yellow and blue so i cant decided what to think ahah</p>
<p>The chart is just a guideline, and you are almost right there. What is your intended major?</p>
<p>chemical engineering</p>
<p>Congrats to the kid who got into BU ED...must be nice knowing before Christmas. Anyway, I just looked at that chart and I am well into the blue and I haven't heard back yet from Smeal. I was also just accepted into Indiana University Bloomington, Directly admitted to the Kelley School, and offered a spot in the Hutton Honors College, so if Penn state is going to be stingey, then so be it!! With that being said, I hope I hear back soon :-( !!!!!!!</p>
<p>I'm going to be changing my major -- does it matter that I had initially signed up for the school of music, and am going to be changing to humanities?</p>
<p>^^^^ nah i changed mine on the phone yesterday its really really easy</p>
<p>Accepted like 3 Weeks ago.
No satellite campus.
SAT : 1340/1600 710M/630V
GPA : 3.97 UW
13 ECS.
OK Essay I think. No recommendations.</p>
<p>What about scholarships guys? Do they have anything for OSS ?</p>
<p>From what I know, if you have a 1200 SAT and like 3.5 you should get into PSU</p>
<p>Of course PSU has $$ for out of staters, expect to hear about them late Feb-March- merit ones seem to come out around the same time they send back your need aid determined from your FAFSA</p>
<p>Accepted to university park last monday.
4.25 weighted. 1180/1600.</p>
