The portal wasn’t working for admissions yesterday between 3 and 7 pm est so I think they were un able to update acceptances which makes me hopeful that there will be a lot released tonight
anyone having portal issues??
Do we get an email if we are accepted or do we just have to keep checking the portal?
You get an email.
Is it true that admissions can see how often you check your portal?
@hasannadeem47 I’ve heard they can
If they can check then they will know I have OCD!!
Does OCD get evaluated like GPA or SAT? If so I scored very high
We did not get an email
We did not get an email regarding acceptance. Received big envelope with Congratulations, blue paw prints, and then on the back was You Are Penn State.
The email landed in my google promotions folder
Did many people get accepted last night? It doesn’t seem like it so I am guessing since the portal was down for like 4 hours they were dealing with that and a lot of acceptances will come out tonight.
Thoughts?
@Adams21 I agree 100%
My portal was updated last night and I got an email this morning
@bayramf you posted your acceptance before midnight. What’s the date on your acceptance letter?
Portal is down this am…don’t read anything into it like they crashed because they are updating so many people with acceptances! Just a problem with portal per PSU Admissions
@hasannadeem47 @baribari @pennst2021 @finnbd33 Unless they have changed things in the last 2 years, we were told that they specifically can’t tell how often you log in, just the last time you’ve logged in to the portal. Also they told us it doesn’t matter anyway. PSU doesn’t consider “interest in the school” as a factor for admission - which is why they don’t keep track of who visits or attends online admissions chats in relation to the applications they receive. They are not linked.
Also, unless things have changed, you will have to check your portal. My son applied this year directly to Altoona, but his decision was still only on the portal and about a week later he received a packet in the mail. No e mail was ever sent nor was it sent 2 years ago when my daughter got accepted to Main campus. So keep checking the portal and don’t worry that they care how often you are logging in. They don’t 
@jlhpsu Thanks, I figured they had better things to do (like reviewing apps)then to see how many times we logged into the portal. BTW thanks as well for all the info JLH, it’s been helpful during the stress of waiting on a decision
did anybody hear today?
Hi!! I applied to Penn State UP for Summer 2017. I applied at midnight on Spet 1st (lol). I applied for the College of Liberal Arts for Spanish. I have two brothers that go to Penn State UP and an uncle that works there!!
I have a 3.8 GPA and an SAT of 1230/1600.
I was looking for some opinions on whether or not i will be offerred admission?! I still have not heard back yet but a bunch of my friends have so i’m super nervous! Does anyone know if summer applicants hear back before most fall applicants or around the same time? Thanks for any help! Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted thus far!! We are!!!
