Applying for the class of 2018 (College starts fall of 2014)

<p>Penn state has 20 campuses and all are a bit easy to get in except University park. Does anyone here know about the engineering at other campuses like beaver and abington? Which campus is best for engineering?</p>

<p>Hey Heisenberg! Welcome to CC :smiley: You’re solid, don’t worry. I’ve got a nice app, I think… But I have an extremely ****ty ACT score so… well, that’s that.</p>

<p>Pkteen, Just forget ACT scores for now… If you have strong ECs, recs and essays, they will ignore the scores. Just ace the interview…</p>

<p>@hassan100 I did ace it (I think). I applied ED, even with no aid to have the best chance possible. Let’s see what happens. 16 Days left to decision day.</p>

<p>Thanks pkteen! But my question remains unanswered…
I emailed them on 22nd but still haven’t heard from the undergrad office.</p>

<p>I’m not sure about Cornell but with Columbia, their website said ‘Oct-Nov test date’. So I think, if you submitted by the 26th, the few extra days it takes to receive and process scores won’t matter.</p>

<p>Can anyone tell me about the commonapp new blunder of “unlock” option in the essay? Why can’t they let us change the essays more than three times? Please explain guys… I am paranoid about it so didn’t touch the essay so far :/</p>

<p>@pkteen Best of luck man. Columbia’s supplement is a bit harder than that of other Ivies :confused: What is your gut feeling?</p>

<p>@hassan100 - there can only be 3 submitted versions of the essay. you can edit it as many times as you like it, but once you submit the common app to even one university, it will be considered as the first version…then u can again edit it as many times as you like it and once you submit the edited one, only then it will become the second version…and so forth…till the third version…after that you will apparently not be able to edit your essay…</p>

<p>@hassan I’m extremely happy with my Columbia supplement and interview. Let’s see what happens though.</p>

<p>Earlyaction95 Thank you so much. I got it…
pkteen, Everything is going to be fine InshAllah.</p>

<p>Here goes my first amreeki college app :stuck_out_tongue: to penn state</p>

<p>UPenn just called me for an interview on December 1st D: I have no idea what to say.</p>

<p>@AltoLime You say yes… (I think)</p>

<p>lol</p>

<p>@pkteen madam/sir (which ever one you are :P), of course I said yes to the interview call. I am, however, clueless about what to say at the interview other than the usual things that are stated at such occasions.</p>

<p>@AltoLime Sire or supreme leader would be more appropriate. I’m a dude though. Name’s Shahrez :D</p>

<p>Is everybody dead or something? -_-</p>

<p>Is there anyone applying ? This is so weird, Last year’s thread was brimming with posts :/</p>

<p>@pkteen all hail our supreme leader :P</p>

<p>@Alto Good! And don’t worry, I’ll keep posting. YOLO</p>
