@axwclassof2022 the Schreyer website says we should be emailed a date that decisions will be released, and they will be posted online on that day as well as an official letter mailed to your house.
Just got an email from SHC that all decisions will be posted online on Tuesday, March 13, 2018, at 3:30 EST. They also said that you must have an offer of admission from Penn State in order to receive a decision from the SHC.
@phillies80 The Schreyer decisions will be posted next week. The lack of Schreyer scholarship in his financial aid offer is not indicative of any Schreyer decision.
From what I learned from an admission counselor and people from the honors college, you are only going to hear from the honors college if you already get a Penn State acceptance. If you haven’t already got an acceptance, then you have to wait until you get your acceptance from Penn State to know the honors college’s decision. Good luck to everyone!
Sorry to hear that JSchoolorbust. How did you find out? Does the status say something? Mine still says “You may check the status of your Schreyer Honors College application below. All of the items below must be fulfilled for your application to be complete.” But nothing as far as Accepted Denied etc.
