PSU Class of 2018 Admission Decision Thread

<p>did they really say 2 weeks.
i cant wait that long.
i really think i wont get in 1680 single session 1730 combined
3.4 unweighed 10 honors 4 aps</p>

<p>@dsdude17
did u apply for summer?</p>

<p>Well I did just get an email saying I will be hearing back really soon. After he email I also saw that it was changed to final review. Well I’ll post my results when I get it</p>

<p>good luck
wats ur stats and what are u applying for</p>

<p>@hopmayer, State College, PA, is pretty cold and snowy in the winter!!!</p>

<p>My stats are pretty weak, I’ll go more in depth if I get accepted.</p>

<p>3.8 unweighted. 5 aps, self studying one.
1540 sat</p>

<p>Undecided, summer</p>

<p>@LucieTheLakie this school is one of the very very few places i have decided i will tolerate the cold if i have the opportunity to be a part of this place for 4 years!! other than that, i love every SINGLE freaking thing about PSU and UP. also, only 1.5 hrs from lehigh, where my boyfriend currently goes! but i couldn’t be prouder of the fact that we both have decided wherever i get accepted and choose to attend is a priority. i could go anywhere and he’ll just be happy if i’m happy. not all couples are as mature, and it breaks my heart when people sacrifice their education or dreams or pursuits just for a partner!! a true one would let you pursue it yourself.</p>

<p>FINALLY GOT THE “COMING DAYS” STATUS! i have been waiting for this since october. and it’s still the university park picture!!! ok so 50/50 chance. acceptance or rejection. phew. breathe!!!</p>

<p>Good luck @hopmayer…and Bethlehem PA is a very funky city. I love it there. Good place to visit BF.</p>

<p>@twinmom2014 he raves about it!! he would marry that school if he could, i swear. he is the ultimate example of a student who loves his school and i can’t wait to visit him in his happy place!! maybe he’ll be visiting me at UP :slight_smile: how long does it take to get decisions after the “coming days”??</p>

My status changed yesterday around 6:30, found out today, about 15 minutes ago</p>

<p>My daughter’s status just changed 10m ago</p>

<p>Accepted UP animal sciences/prevet</p>

<p>So excited!!!</p>

<p>@hopmeyer …my daughter got the coming days on a Sat morning and we found out on that next Tuesday around 6. My daughter almost applied to Lehigh because it has her major but she also wanted to do a minor in dance so we opted out. I love that old hotel on the corner. Stayed there last summer and have been back a couple of times since then for diner I have family in Allentown. We live in Mass.</p>

<p>@twinmom2014 so since it’s wednesday night, maybe i would know by saturday? ish? his mom is visiting now and just telling me about how much i would love it…hopefully my mom lets me visit him over my april break! i live in MA too!</p>

<p>@momofboys727 my daughter was accepted to Altoona but had her heart set on main at Smeal Business School. She called yesterday and today received notification that she has been offered DUS at main! Anybody else in this situation, it is well worth calling and checking your options. VERY happy household tonight!</p>

<p>@blob, yeah the admissions officer said i’d hear back “within the next two weeks”. I even applied summer for Smeal at UP and did not opt in a branch school. I think i’m getting considered for fall at UP for DUS now I think (since my stats meet the “standards”). Yours do too!</p>

<p>If you are making it from PSU UP to Lehigh in a hour and a half, I hope you have a private jet. Good luck on getting in.</p>
