Amazing!! Congrats! Out of curiosity, When did she apply and to what major? I know itā€™s random, but stillā€¦

She applied Sept. 5th, and admitted Smeal - marketingā€¦.

Totally random. Her older brother had higher stats and didnā€™t find out until December 21st, computer science. He finished his application mid- October that year.

They will not email you. You have to check the portal

What are the TO buttons

Itā€™s the Test-Optional button allowing a candidate to change his/her answer to whether they are applying TO. Last couple of years, people were reporting that button disappeared a day or so before the decision was posted.
