@shayyy123 Your best bet for responses would be to start a chance me thread. Good luck
Not that it represents a material difference but I mistyped my DS’s SAT score in post #357. It is 2060/2400, not 2050/2400.

what is the minimum cutoff for SAT( CR, M &W) and GPA for an admission to PSU Engineering school?
Just need some affirmation…it is normal to have the “under review” status for over a month?
Yup! The majority of the acceptances will not hit until after Nov 30th. Only the individuals with the higher stats are hearing now.
My daughter found out this morning she was accepted to UP for the Recreation, Park, and Tourism major! We are thrilled since this was her top choice!!! She applied 9/2 but her transcripts weren’t sent until 10/6.

@NusaDua my daughter got accepted to criminology. We received notification on Monday but we were on cruise week before so I don’t know what day it actually changed from under review to congratulations. I am sure u will hear shortly. Good luck!
@shamrock97 yes. that is completely normal. I received my acceptance about 5 weeks after they received all of my materials.
Thank you Bayside. I really do not know much about Penn State’s Criminology Program. Is it very competitive?
Congrats! I have about the same stats so hopefully I will get in, see you there!
I’ve taken 15 combined honors and AP classes. Is that on par with most of the acceptances so far?
I applied the first week in October & still haven’t heard anything. All it says is “Application is under review…” how long is it gonna take until it changes to something!?
@QwertyYuiopp1 Welcome to the club. You can hear tonight or you can hear Jan.31st. Their seems to be no rhyme or reason…unless your a top tier applicant…they usually hear quicker.
