My Penn State

<p>Is the portal down this morning? Getting an error message....</p>

<p>Yes it seems to be.</p>

<p>Thanks… I really need to stop obsessively checking it!</p>

<p>I know what you mean! I already had texted my daughter (the applicant…lol) at school if she had tried to get on too!</p>

<p>I don’t think the status will change until November, the earliest, based on what I’ve seen here. But I still check everyday! I just hope we’re lucky enough to not have to wait until January. This is my second daughter… I’ve got one there already…in her second year… She found out early November. Fingers crossed. Best of luck to your daughter!</p>

<p>Me too! My nephew also found out in early November. I read last night that admissions said that the top 10% find out in November. Hopefully that will be the case! Best of luck with your daughter as well! Have a great day!</p>

<p>I’m also hoping my daughter hears in November. I can’t imagine waiting until January - but based on what they’ve told me (I was the one that posted about admissions saying most people hear in January), I am assuming we have a while to wait. When you look at the admissions thread from last year, however, there were lots of people who obviously weren’t in the top 10% who heard in November and December. So I’m hoping that their standard “line” is January so that people aren’t panicking - but that you can hear earlier. That’s what I’m hoping for anyway!! My husband and I are both PSU grads and this is the only place my D wants to go. So stressful!
PS…I checked the portal today too…I check daily, lol…</p>

<p>Same with my D. Only PSU! Hopefully, we’ll hear in November!</p>

<p>Here’s hoping we all can say WE ARE sometime soon!</p>

<p>@jlhpsu where can I find the admissions thread from last year?</p>

<p>I googled College Confidential Penn State 2018 to get to it.</p>

<p>That’s how I found it as well. Also if you scroll to the topics in this forum and just go back to about this time last year, one of the threads was the admission thread for class of 2018. It can be frustrating because a rhyme or reason to admission time lines seem to be hard to find. </p>

<p>Definitely PSUMom1321! Lets all come back to this thread and post when our daughters hear something. Hopefully in November! </p>

<p>Ok will do! </p>

<p>I think one of you (pointing a finger at jlhpsu -LOL) should start the 2019 Accepted/Denied Admissions thread. It’s alway fun to see and read about all the prospective students and their location, GPA, SAT/ACT, intended major or school, others colleges that they applied to, and other pertinent info. It helps pass the time.
Of course, the best is reading the accepted posts. Comfort those that didn’t get accepted. </p>

<p>Ok I’ll start it, haha. I am always on here anyway, LOL. I’ll look on the accepted thread for 2018 to see how they did it!</p>

<p>@jlhpsu did you start the 2019 thread?</p>

<p>@asdf15 yes! Nothing is in it yet, but it’s there. Look down a few threads on this group and you should see it. </p>

<p>My status has changed to “We are in the final stages of review and an admissions decision will be posted here in the coming days.” Don’t know if anyone else has the same. </p>

<p>@bartmta… You should be getting a decision very soon… Good luck!</p>
