Your post says 2022, is this for 2023?
If it is, people are most likely caught up in the EA/deferral sh*tshow that’s been going on since 12/22 and they don’t have their decisions yet. People are prob waiting to hear from admissions first before getting hopes up for Schreyer.

When will Schreyer decisions be released?

@Specialist009 I sent an email to Schreyer Honors and they responded same day. They said that decisions should be out by Mid February.

Yes to be clear this is for Schreyer 2023. I made a typo.

Schreyer’s Decisions are released on Tuesday, Feb 19th. Fingers crossed!

Does anyone know the acceptance rate for Schreyer’s program? Percentage within the admitted students?

https://www.shc.psu.edu/counselors/denied.cfm 19-25% of Schreyer applicants are accepted into the Honors Program.

We will all know in 10 minutes. Good luck to all!

it is posted now. D got accepted

@ccmbr98 Congratulations! My D is still awaiting admissions decision, so Schreyer could not post any decision. ?

My S’s status has not changed yet

Can you all post number and subject or AP/IB/DE classe and hiw touvhzbdked the essays? (For current and future readers)

My D was accepted! I am frankly…shocked!!

My daughter did not get in. However we are still PSU bound!

Congratulations to the ones that were accepted!

Son was declined. A bit surprising given his admission to Cornell and Michigan. I’m a legacy at PSU and wanted him to attend, but I cannot advise him to choose 'ol State over the others sans-Schreyer. Ugh…I was so looking forward to the tailgates!

Mine too!! So happy!

@parentinNY it’s so crazy. My D was denied to Pitt honor college and accepted to Shreyers. No rhyme or reason.
