Hey everyone, I am an upcoming senior in high school and I really want to go to Penn State Main. I live in Pennsylvania and I am planning to major in Chemical Engineering. I am also Asian, and my parents did not graduate high school. I’m kind of worried that I won’t be accepted because my GPA and SAT score. What are my chances of being accepted into Penn State - University Park?
