<p>Thanks for your comments dancer87. I can only imagine how you’ve been feeling sitting there waiting since September! Forget my impatience with mid-November :). I assume that you really do want to go there, and will go if accepted, correct? I hope that it turns out to be worth the wait for you, and that they let you know very soon.</p>
<p>I applied mid-october…still no word. I heard back from a couple other schools already so I’m slowly losing interest in PSU. I would still like to know though. Good news is, we were guaranteed an answer by jan 31 for those who applied before nov 30…then again…I don’t know how likely it is that I will actually hear by then</p>
<p>Dadager, I was in a similar situation with my math grades on my SAT and also my math classes in general. I got a 500 on my math section, and have gotten low B’s in my math classes. I was accepted to university park despite that. Hope that helps!</p>

<p>PSUMom2011 - My major is Political Science</p>
<p>Thanks asollazz, and congratulations to you! She indicated that she’d be willing to start in the summer too, so perhaps that might help. Still not that optimistic though based on her overall stats (SAT 1670 (M-460/R-560/W-650) and GPA (3.35 UW/3.5 W), but I guess you never know until you get a decision. The waiting continues…</p>
<p>UGH!!! DD still waits as well. 3.5UW, 1840 SAT, 26 ACT. Applied to hosp mgmt, school of H&HD. </p>
<p>Applied mid-Oct. She has pretty much moved on.</p>
