Commonwealth Campus acceptances are coming out

Colleges and Universities A-Z Penn State

Hi everyone -
Every year at this time this board will start to get busy with people saying that they saw on twitter or facebook or a friend told them that they got their PSU acceptances. This is for the COMMONWEALTH campuses. My son just got his acceptance to Penn State Altoona because that is where he applied. He didn’t apply to UP so he wasn’t deferred to Altoona. Altoona campus was his first choice. Altoona just started releasing decisions this week.

So, don’t be fooled and don’t get overly excited. These aren’t UP acceptances you are seeing on social media. Not yet!

We are thrilled with the Altoona acceptance as it was his first choice and is a beautiful campus. We have a daughter at UP as a sophomore as well. She started in Leap in 2015.

Just a precautionary FYI for everyone :slight_smile:

I’m a transfer student, and my portal just changed to “Your application has been updated. Please check back soon for a status update.” So I’m guessing they are reviewing applications now. I have to wait until the end of semester to send my fall 2016 semester grades. Applying to UP

@jlhpsu Congratulations to your son!
