PSU Class of 2018 Admission Decision Thread

<p>@collegeris are you an international student and when did you apply and have all your credentials in by?</p>

<p>Accepted to EME at main campus for summer.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t have chosen Summer but it isn’t really a plus or minus in my book. After my mom heard that you could take a class or two over summer to ease into college life she seemed very enthused so I may have been going either way!</p>

<p>Good luck to everybody still waiting! Try not to lose any sleep!</p>

<p>Daughter waiting to hear also. She applied to The College of Health and Human Services/ Dept of Kinesiology. She applied early October. Her credentials are much better then her friends who have already been accepted to UP. She is getting nervous.</p>

<p>So my Application Status just turned into…</p>

<p>“We are in the final stages of review and an admissions decision will be posted here in the coming days.”</p>

<p>Do they release any decisions over the weekend or is my best bet that I’ll find out on Tuesday?</p>

<p>My son is still waiting to hear from architecture, or landscape architecture. His status changed to coming days today. I haven’t heard of anyone getting into architecture yet. Very anxious for him.</p>

<p>No, my son is from NJ. He applied and had all credentials in by middle of October. He applied to architecture with landscape architecture as a second choice so they were told they wouldn’t hear anything until a little bit later as all architecture applicants had until November 30th to get their applications in.</p>

<p>Accepted to College of Engineering for Fall 2014!!!</p>

<p>My daughters status just changed tonight too. Crossing fingers these kids find out some good news soon!</p>

<p>Forgot to mention at Main Campus</p>

<p>Have you guys been checking the status all day? And they just recently changed or this is your first time checking it for the day for those who’s status changed</p>

<p>Can status changes happen over the weekend?</p>

<p>Have to admit I’ve been obsessively checking my son’s status. It changed by 6am this morning to coming days. Changed within the last 2 hours to accepted Main Campus for Fall.</p>

<p>I didn’t know you had to put Starting Campus as UPark, I thought you were automatically evaluated for that campus. I put it as Erie and was accepted for Engineering. I emailed the Admissions office and asked if I they could reevaluate my application with UPark as my Starting Campus and they said they would but only for Summer 2014. Probably not going to Penn State anymore.</p>

<p>Mine says “We are in the final stages of review and an admissions decision will be posted here in the coming days.” </p>

<p>And the pic changed from UP to Brandywine. </p>

<p>I wanna breakdown and cry. I can’t handel this.</p>

<p>For the people that got into summer how low were your sats?</p>

<p>@vibs
2040 SAT
3.8 UW GPA
Eagle scout, good activities</p>

<p>@Butschal You are fall material. That’s on the upper end of middle 50.</p>

<p>@vibs
Yeah I thought so too. Got Summer. Not worried about it, the LEAP program looks fun.</p>

<p>Penn state claims that “they don’t put too much emphasis on the SAT and that the GPA accounts for 2/3 of the decision” but in reality it’s actually the SAT that they look at because those with high SATs got in and those with high GPAs are still waiting most of them really.</p>

<p>Anybody planning to do biomed engineering at penn state university UP? P.S I got in</p>
