<p>Your extracurriculars are pretty solid man.</p>

<p>However PSU does focus mainly on GPA/SATS…your gpa is pretty good i’d say, higher than mine (and im an incoming freshman). But your ACT’s and SAT’s would need a couple more points (or a couple hundred more)…hope that helps, best of luck!</p>

<p>My answer is pretty much the same as the previous one. Penn State really focuses on GPA’s and SAT’s. Really try to raise your SAT/ACT, because it is on the lower end. I’d suggest saying that you’ll come for summer session to increase your chances of getting in.</p>
