Summer Session

I was just wondering if anybody has any information on summer session for penn state. I applied in October, and I still have not heard from Penn State admissions. I am wondering when they send out summer session admissions, and the average GPA and SAT for summer session (those who were not admitted to fall)

Did you apply straight summer, or summer if denied fall? The stats for summer are just slightly lower than for fall - and actually, last year I saw some people with lower stats than my daughter get in for fall while she got in for summer, so who knows really. Anecdotally, my daughter got in for summer last year with a 3.45GPA and a 28ACT with a 32 in writing.

Their summer session is lumped in with their fall as far as decision dates go. So if you applied in October, you will hear by Jan 31st.

@jlhpsu was the 3.45 weighted?

@asaberian My daughter took 8 honors classes in high school, but her high school grades VERY tough (94% for an A) and only weights slightly (.1) for honors classes. So the 3.45 was weighted, but her unweighted was a 3.4. It looked good to take the honors classes and she did well in them, it just didn’t help tremendously with the GPA.
