<p>They received all my materials November 28th (talk about cutting it close!)</p>
<p>I received an acceptance today like at midnight. December 4th.</p>
<p>SO HAPPY!</p>
<p>Yo first pennstate said they got all my materials. but about a week ago it changed to this:
" We have received your application; we may require additional information. If so, we will be contacting you by email or letter." </p>
<p>any idea what this means?They havent made any contact yet. does it just mean im borderline?</p>
<p>@mohantysa Perhaps. Maybe you are still missing some materials such as ACT/SAT scores and transcript.</p>
<p>I got the “coming days” status on Thursday and they haven’t posted their decision yet.</p>
<p>I just got in the eberly school of science. Quick question though how do you know if you got a scholarship</p>
<p>@want2succeed - what were your stats like that you heard back so fast?
congrats btw!:)</p>
<p>Is there a fb group for accepted/committed students? If not, we need to make one! It’s never to early for roommate searching lol</p>
<p>I’m really nervous. I applied back in October and still haven’t heard. I have this message so far, “Your application is complete, all of your required materials are here, and we are reviewing your credentials. A decision will be available here as soon as one is made.” It doesn’t say coming days!!! Anyone else have this instead? Is this just the message before the “coming days” one? Even more stress on me because my twin brother was accepted yesterday and my stats are just slightly lower than his!</p>
<p>Cel589 I agree! We should make a fb group!</p>
<p>They received my app on the 19th of Nov and all materials were sent on the 20th and received sometime over thanksgiving break (I called to double check that I made the Nov 30th deadline and an admissions counselor said that as long as it was postmarked/sent out before the 30th I’m perfectly fine) my status changed to the “we received all materials. Please continue to check your status” on Dec. 1st and I’m dying to find out whether I got in or not…how long do you think it will take to hear back? Jan?</p>
<p>@want2succeed: wow you heard back so quickly!!! stats? congrats btw.</p>
<p>is there a way to make a fb group where anyone can join?</p>
<p>yes! just go to the groups sidebar, then create a group, then make it ‘open’ ! If you make one definitely post it in here and I’d start a new thread telling people about it too so everyone on here can join!</p>
<p>I think that someone already started a facebook group- just search for “penn state class of 2016”-</p>
<p>[Penn</a> State University Class of 2016 - Wall | Facebook](<a href=“Penn State University Class of 2016”>Penn State University Class of 2016)</p>
<p>I had the “coming days” status since Thursday. Now it’s Monday. No change. I think I am being impatient.</p>
<p>Furtard1-He is very pleased with the academics at Penn State. He used some AP credits and went in taking a higher level of calculus and physics & is very happy with his decision. It is challenging. I sent you a private message through CC. Please feel to ask more questions.</p>
<p>Has anyone who got the “coming days” status on friday heard back yet? I’m so anxious</p>
<p>I’m kind of worried… my stats are
