Penn State Application Status

Hey, I applied to Penn State, Univ Park on October 28.

Ever since, the application status bar says: “Penn State is currently receiving a high volume of supporting application materials. Supporting application materials are being processed and recorded on the date received. Please check your MyPennState profile regularly for updates to your checklist items. Once your checklist items are complete we will begin a review of your application.”

Should I be worried?

p.s. The checklist says that I have turned everything in already.

Don’t be worried. This is normal. Also if you scroll down to previous threads you will see about 10 others-including me-have asked this same question.

@simple0920 thanks, does this mean they haven’t seen my application yet?

@upneetsb admissions told me that this means they have not yet reviewed the app but do have all the information needed to consider the application complete.

We are out of state and just received an acceptance today online. Daughter applied for marketing and has a 31 ACT, 1410 SAT, 8 AP classes and 4.25 GPA.

Congrats, were you having the same problem as me?
Also, when did you turn in your application?

@vamom4 ^

Applied the last week of October. No problems with status. Also received “YOU ARE PENN STATE” large envelope with info.

Mine has been under review for two weeks, I check about 20-30 times a day. Im in the same boat

@upneetsb Hi! Did your application status get updated? I too applied in November and my application is still not under review.
