Still Haven't Heard Yet...

<p>What's wrong? I applied on November 28 which makes the Priority Deadline. A lot of people on here have heard...what should I do?</p>

<p>I checked online status and it still says "Your application has been received and is being reviewed. Thank you for applying to Penn State."</p>

<p>hmmmm I dont know why your app hasnt been done yet....maybe try callin them?</p>

<p>I haven't heard back either, I applied a little late than you did.
My online status says the same thing, panikhs. </p>

<p>You think it's because I didn't check the Summer Session box?</p>

<p>we should be getting decisions sometime this week. I called them today.</p>

<p>i applied Nov 15, and got in nov 30. even people who got rejected got decisions within 10-14 days. the longer it takes doesnt necesarily mean they are still thinking about it, just that they are lazy and havent got around to everyones since theirs so many applying</p>

<p>my guess, feel free to disagree</p>

<p>Depending on the time you send in your application, the admissions officers have a certain deadline in giving you your decision notice. Typically, the high-end and low-end applicants (meaning most and least qualified) are decided upon first, and those who are in the middle (boarderlining) are decided upon a little later. At least that's how it was during the Nov 30-Jan 31 cycle.</p>

<p>yeah And i think checking summer session will show them that you have a better chance of going (so they might accept you quicker)
Im just saying this because a few days after I sent in my app., I sent them an email saying I wanted to be considered for SS if i didnt get into fall. And i think a week or two after that I recieved my acceptance for fall.</p>
