<p>Any information about the summer session?</p>
<p>Why would anyone want to start school a week afer high school ends? I dont get why anyone wants that fortheir last summer before college. Am I missing something?</p>
<p>GOT INTO UNIVERSITY PARK SUMMER SESSION!!! DREAMS DO COME TRUE!!! I CANT BELIEVE THIS! we are PENN STATE!!!</p>
<p>@BeaversPSU what were your stats?</p>
<p>@cheergirlPSU total sat of 1510 and a 3.5 gpa and i play lax</p>
<p>@BeaversPSU I have similar stats- what school did you apply to?</p>
<p>@cheergirlPSU I applied undecided</p>
<p>ATTENTION EVERYONE: My account BeaversPSU was fake. Those were not my real statistics. I really have a 1520 SAT and 4.0 GPA. I was accepted into the summer for university park. GO PENN STATE</p>
<p>Jchenn14 The summer session has about 7,000 students vs 42,000 in the fall. You take 2 classes (I think) and get to know the school/teachers before everyone else. Plus you earn credit so you are a little ahead. Call Admissions and ask that is the only way you will have all the facts. BELIEVE62 P.S. My son is taking the summer session</p>
<p>1moremom Thank You! I was a nervous wreck…he applied in Oct and found out in January. I felt like a stalker waiting for that mail truck :)</p>
<p>Lily9595 You can receive an acceptance for Smeal at a branch location. I know of two students so far. BELIEVE62</p>
<p>Is this the “coming soon” message…</p>
<p>Your application is complete, all of your required materials are here, and we are reviewing your credentials. A decision will be available here as soon as one is made.</p>
<p>@jimmyshine no thats the normal message…you will get a message where it says “a decision will be available in coming days” or close to that…then your result will be posted after 3 days…</p>
<p>@believe62 thanks! I got into University Park for Fall!</p>
<p>I called admissions and asked if I could go to the summer classes at UP! best of luck everyone! I also sent in a letter of appeal because I didn’t get into UP originally but I had a lot more EC’s my senior year that I didn’t put on my app so hopefully thatll do me good!</p>

<p>Congrats!!! BELIEVE62</p>
<p>@XP thanks for the clarification.</p>
<p>Does anyone know in what <em>ORDER</em> you should apply for housing? Dorm/SLO, Roommate or Location? If you don’t have a roommate should location be your first choice or SLO? What if the student is not selected for an SLO… would they drop to the bottom for housing since location was selected third? BELIEVE62</p>
<p>All that depends on the date of when you put the 300 deposit down. It goes by date, you can change any of those things you mentioned up to May:
“Housing Contract Preferences
After you accept your offer of admission and Housing Contract, you can then log into eLiving to indicate preferences on your Housing Contract, such as housing area, Campus Meal Plan level, roommate choice, or a Special Living Option choice. When room assignments are processed, the date that the offer of admission is accepted is used to determine priority. Therefore, the earlier the offer of admission is accepted, the better chance of receiving housing preferences for the academic year. Housing Contract preferences are never guaranteed.
Housing Contract preferences can be modified until May 15. Students that are attending both summer and fall should indicate preferences for both contact periods. There will be a limited time in the beginning of Summer Session that summer session students can submit fall roommate preferences.”</p>
<p>I believe SLO determines location/dorms. If you don’t get it, then you’ll get next option. Roommates - my daughter met her roommate at acceptance day for her major…so that’s when they put in their dorm pref and each other’s names (but that was for fall admittance). Don’t know if that’s how it works for summer…think so!</p>
