Response from Penn State

Does anyone know the earliest that Penn State will send out a decision notification to applicants? If I send in my application the first week of September, will i receive a decision earlier than the expected january date or will I have to wait just as long? Thanks for the help.

No one can tell you that. The only thing Penn State promises is that if you apply by Nov 30 (and that means everything in by Nov 30), then you will hear by Jan 31. My daughter applied Sept 2 and didn’t hear until Jan 26. That is typical. If you hear earlier, you are lucky.

Hey! I was in the same situation as you. I submitted my application as soon as it was released. I found out that I was accepted on November 30th. So the earlier turn in did produce an earlier response for me. Good luck!
