How much longer will I stare at this status?!

<p>For those that got in, did you check online or did they send a letter to you?</p>

<p>ephenst= Monday!! Good luck!!!</p>

<p>Best of luck to you, ephenst!</p>

<p>3-6 weeks???"? just noticed first page of this post! Son applied 9/13 and is still a “a decsion will be posted when one is made” Is there a finite date for EA applications at PSU…like usually mid January?
He doesn’t care, he’s in 8 schools already (all higher on his list than Penn State) but I keep checking because it’s the lone “rolling” hold out! (And I’d like to him to stay closer to home)</p>

<p>Everyone who applied before Nov 1 should hear back from PSU by the end of January, Im in a similar situation, applied in Sept but still have the “when one is made” status.</p>

<p>Hope they have the balls to just accept or deny. I think PSU utilizes the “alternate campus” and summer sessions as their version of EA defferral…which is kinder (I think).</p>

<p>***"I just got the “coming days” status this morning. Has anyone been denied after getting this status?</p>

<p>doesn’t look like it."***</p>

<p>And I believed this for a while. But I did some research and found at least one case where this isn’t true.
Last year, CC member eternalsunshinex wrote My status changed yesterday to: “An admission decision will be posted here in the coming days.” in this thread <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/penn-state-university-park/801302-official-penn-state-university-park-decisions-thread-14.html#post1063973882[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/penn-state-university-park/801302-official-penn-state-university-park-decisions-thread-14.html#post1063973882&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Then a little while later she marked rejected under the Penn State UP applicant stats section.</p>

<p>So what I’m saying is that there’s at least one person who received the “coming days” status and still got rejected.</p>

<p>I’m not writing this to prove anyone wrong but I think people should know that rejection is still possible until you receive the words that tell you you have been accepted. I’m almost positive that rejection huts twice as bad when thought for a little while that you had been accepted.</p>

<p>And thanks for the support 3beesinc and QuicklyTea</p>

<p>ACCEPTED!! yay.</p>

<p>EastCoaster00, isn’t priority deadline Nov 30? so whoever applied by that date should get theres before end of Jan.</p>

<p>I applied exactly on that date and my status is coming days. Also, i called an admissions officer on friday to change something on my app and they told me i’d get my decision in 7-12 business days, which should be around christmas time at the latest</p>

<p>My friend got the coming days status yesterday and today was accepted to Altoona not UP.</p>

<p>I am really getting impatient , I applied on october 3rd and still haven’t heard back. PSU is in my top 2-3 choices so I really am getting anxious.</p>

<p>Someone posted that PS will offer a spot at a branch campus even if you didn’t ask for one? I think that person received the offer in the mail? Did some of you branch campus offer kids NOT write down alternate campus choices?</p>

<p>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.</p>

<p>… C’MON MAN!!</p>

<p>-Applied October 20th
-College of Engineering
-ACT 25 (yeah I know…) 28 on math if that matters
-3.52 Unweighed (4.0 scale)
-AP calc this year
-Tons of extra curriculars
-Out of state</p>

<p>WHEN WILL THIS STATUS CHANGE? and what are my odds? Thanks</p>

<p>jeremy - I have very similar stats and also have been waiting since October. I have a 25 ACT, also with a 28 in one of the subparts (science is what killed me). I have a 3.6 unweighted (4.0 scale). Hopefully I hear soon.</p>

<p>jeremy11 i had that status for like 2 days and then it switched to this today “Thank you for applying to Penn State. Your application has been received and is being reviewed. An admission decision will be posted here in the coming days.” My friend got this status on thursday and got accepted today!</p>

<p>psufan24-what are your stats and what school did you apply to? Hope you get good news tomorrow!</p>

<p>I dont want to attend UP i want to go to altoona! My status are a bit higher than recommended. I really like the small class size :)</p>

<p>Oh, so did you apply straight to Altoona? Sounds like you will know soon-no worrying over the holidays for you! Great job!</p>

<p>LAME i still have my “decision will be posted when one is made” status. PSUfan what did you pick as your major?</p>

<p>No, I put UP as first campus, and Altoona as second. On my application I put undecided. My friend that got in today put Pre-Med as her major.</p>

<p>YAAAAAAHOOOOO!!! I got in! I scream online becasue I cant really scream in real life. If you look at he time for this post, you’ll notice that I made a very dumb choice for two reasons. I checked my status at four am because I couldn’t sleep since recieving the “coming days” status. Now…

  1. There’s no way I can prooperly display all of my excitement.</p>

<ol>
<li>There’s no way I’ll get back to sleep.</li>
</ol>

<p>But I dont care…I got in.
