So I’m applying to PSU main and have also selected optional summer session (which i plan to attend if i get in). My declared major is DUS.
My stats: 3.0 gpa weighted (lots of honors and 4 ap classes) 1710/2400 sat and lots of extracurriculars.
Do you think i have a chance of getting into summer session at penn state? I listed Berks as my second option.
Also Im a PA resident for the last 12 years (don’t know if that helps in admission process but still…)
A 3.0 might be too low for main.
From reading threads in the Penn State forum I believe you need at least a 3.4 to be accepted to University Park. I’m not sure if that changes for summer session though.
Likely referred to a PSU branch campus.
My daughter had a 3.45 and a 29 ACT and was still deferred to summer session for DUS two years ago.
Anything can happen, but in general, those stats would be deferred to a branch campus.
80% deferred to branch in my opinion.
