My daughter received her acceptance to UP earlier this week (CIST Cybersecurity). Her stats are below:

UW GPA 3.80
W GPA 4.07
ACT 31

Good ECs, with several that align with her chosen major

I’m pretty sure it’s just random. I haven’t gotten my decision yet and my gpa is 4.52w/3.96uw with 16 honors/ap courses.

Still waiting here and applied 10/13, S21 has 3.9uw and 32 on his ACT. I think I prefer when schools all release on the same day because then at least you aren’t left wondering why you haven’t heard, lol.

Agreed. Or at least be truly rolling and not tell some kids early and others later.

I agree. To have no rhyme or reason to the release of decisions is particularly frustrating.

I feel like some of our decisions are already made and sitting on someone’s desk just there

I’m sorry that I scared you! I was excited about my acceptance, so I posted on here, but don’t compare your kid to my stats. Penn State was my safety, and your son has stats that seem great for PSU engineering! I would assume that your kid won’t have an issue getting into the College of Engineering at UP.

Congrats! Do you know when your D submitted her application?
