1560 SATs

3.8UW GPA/4.6W

Submitted day before deadline - Halloween I guess?

Heard the following Thursday, so less than a week.

Can't afford to attend without merit or need based grants, so may be a moot point. Hoping College Park comes through with an acceptance. Wish College Park would do rolling so we didn't feel compelled to take up spots at other schools. Oh well.


It’s university park and they usually will let you know at time of acceptance. Many of the branches will be closing or consolidating, sending you Univ Park


University Park, Pennsylvania is the main campus of Penn State, but the PP was referring to College Park, Maryland, where the main campus of the University of Maryland is located. The PP is wishing that the University of Maryland would do rolling admissions like Penn State does.

Was the notification via email? Did you receive any "regular" mail for the acceptance?

Did your kid get an email about applying to the honor's college and, if so, did they apply?
