<p>To anyone applying to the Schreyer Honors College at PSU: do you know how long the two "long" essays should be?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I've been wondering this also. On the Penn State forum, I saw something like 2 pages double-spaced but I don't know how accurate that is. I'll probably end up writing ~500 words, since that seems to be the norm for college admissions. Let me know if you find anything out!</p>
<p>ok, thanks. I mean...I guess 500 is pretty standard for a college essay, so mine will probably end up about there too. I'll post any other info I get!</p>
<p>anyone know when we should expect a decision if we applied before nov. 30th??? not w/ honors college just the regular school?</p>
<p>I'm not sure about that...the end of Feb. I think?</p>
<p>Also: if you apply to Schreyer, will they give you a decision for regular Penn State too? Do you get them both together? I've been trying to figure out how that works.</p>
<p>You'll find out about regular Penn State first, since you send in that app first usually. But definitely regular by the end of January, then Schreyer in February.</p>
<p>GAAAAAH i really cannot wait that long... I don't want to get stuck going to a side campus. i wanted to wait before i applied elsewhere but i guess i'll have to do it now</p>
