<p>You have a very good chance.</p>

<p>i heard PSU doesnt care or look at ppl's EC's, isnt it right?</p>

<p>Yeah that's right, unless you apply to SHC or really borderline or something.</p>

<p>You'll get in with that GPA.</p>

<p>just wondering... is Penn State a good engineering school? I would go to UT but I want to leave Texas and move to the north :)</p>

<p>Penn State has a great engineering school. Most of its programs are ranked in the top 20 I believe. They also have a good coop/internship program. I read from a book in barnes and nobles that 970 companies were on campus recruiting for students during career fair.</p>

<p>Yeah, the engineering school is very good. I think you have a very good shot of getting accepted. I was just suggest that you apply as early as possible. It only gets more difficult the longer you wait with rolling admissions. Best of luck.</p>

<p>"Yeah that's right, unless you apply to SHC or really borderline or something."</p>

<p>What's SHC?</p>

<p>Schreyer</a> Honors College</p>

<p>Penn</a> State Engineering Rankings</p>

<p>Wow. SHC has a new website. It looks good.</p>
