PSU Class of 2022 Decision Thread

my son’s status also has finally changed to completed and under review. Hope decision will come out soon.

@ccs0623 - My daughter applied 9/1 with a 4.0 UW and a 1260 SAT. Her status changed to under review in mid-October. She participates in everything under the sun (class officer for 4 years, FBLA, Mini-Thon overall chair, hockey all four years and a captain her final year, volunteered at the local hospital, volunteers for a animal rescue), and has never taken less than an Honors or AP course. She has been accepted at Pitt for nursing, but PSU is where she really wants to go! She is still waiting… I only saw one other acceptance from the Nursing school on here. I also saw that someone waited until 2/1 last year to find out she got into the nursing program. Hopefully we all hear soon!

Applied mid ocotober, srar changed to completed today, app is under review!

@fhockeymom0600 - Thanks so frustrating but I guess no news is good news at this point. My D has heard from several other schools and is patiently awaiting PSU as I think this is her first choice. This is a reach for her so could go either way. Awesome GPA but SAT a little low.

@ccs0623 - best of luck to her! I am hoping for the best for both of them!!

I submitted the application late October but I haven’t heard anything yet. Do I need to expect any bad news?
GPA 4.25 W
SAT 1470
DUS

We have been under review for 2 months…the final decisions will come any day between now and end of January. its’ totally random

@fhockeymom0600 - thanks best of luck to your daughter too. If she got into Pitt I would think she will get into PSU. Hoping where my daughter goes to HS has some pull. In the past they have accepted all but 2-3 kids that have applied. Keeping fingers crossed. They had 35 apply to PSU and currently 10 have been accepted.

You should be fine! We have around the same stats (I’m higher on GPA but lower on scores) and I got in yesterday!

Will they release decisions today? If so, what time?

Any decisions made today will be released after midnight.

Have not seen any summer UP acceptances yet either…

@ronboy72 I noticed the same thing, I think I’ve seen maybe 1 or 2 at most on this thread. Maybe summer acceptances are coming out late January? I applied in September and have been under review for 2 months now and I applied with summer as backup.

Did anyone else accepted to College of Comm get a letter? I got a letter from them today and it had a handwritten note on the bottom from the dean of of the college of communications. I never heard of PSU doing this.

My D app is under review for more then 4 weeks .she applied Dus with summer backup.Too long a wait. Do they work weekends this time of the year or strictly Monday to Friday. Just hoping to see the status change at the earliest.

@carmen00 They will sometimes send out letters from the department you’ve been accepted to to make you aware of scholarships and other opportunities. What is the letter in reference to?

@ccs0623 It might be my daughter’s acceptance that you saw… I think its back on page 19 - she was accepted to UP nursing- meanwhile UPITT asked for a second SAT and first semester grades. She did also jut get into UDEL but PENN is it for her. Hang in there! I think we just got randomly lucky with an early acceptance - Best of Luck to everyone!!!

Also it’s worth checking the portal on Saturdays. My daughter’s acceptance showed up on a Saturday after the site was down for a few hours.

Is PSU admissions working on Monday or they are off for long weekend Martin Luther King day ?

@sulu I feel your pain. It has been a very long wait and I doubt any Admissions staff are working Monday which makes me doubt if there will be any updates on Tuesday. The good news is that we should hear some sort of decision by the end of the month if your application was in by the priority deadline. Good luck!
