Special Academic Program Opportunities
Schreyer Honors College
Schreyer Honors College is Penn State’s undergraduate honors program for students of exceptional academic achievement and
research or creative potential.
Note: Consideration for the Schreyer Honors College requires (in addition to the regular Penn State admission application) a
separate application, which is reviewed by the Faculty Selection Committee. You can access this application at shc.psu.edu.
Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate Credit
Penn State cooperates with the College Board in the Advanced Placement (AP) program. Credit may be awarded for Advanced
Placement examinations, depending upon the grade earned on the examinations.
If you have taken Higher Level Examinations in the Inter national Baccalaureate program or have studied sub jects at the advanced
level in some foreign educational systems, you also may be eligible to receive Penn State credit.
Details are available from admissions officers at each Penn State campus or at admissions.psu.edu.
Services for Students with Disabilities
Penn State encourages academically qualified students with disabilities to take advantage of its educational programs. It is the policy
of the University not to discriminate against per sons with disabilities in its admission policies or procedures or its educational pro-
grams, services, and activities.
Students anticipating the need for accommodations, both before and after enrollment, are encouraged to con tact the Office for
Disability Services at University Park campus (116 Boucke Building, 814-863-1807 V/TTY) or the di rector of student affairs at other

Does Penn State offer an early decision/action program?
No, Penn State does not use an early decision/action program in its admission process.
How long after filing my application will I receive a response?
In general, if your complete application and credentials are received in the Undergraduate Admissions Office by Novem-
ber 30, your an ticipated notification date should typically be no later than January 31. If your applica tion and cre dentials
are received by December 31, your anticipated notification date should typically be no later than February 28. And if
your complete application and credentials are received in Undergraduate Admissions on or after January 1, your antici-
pated notification date should typically be after March 1. Decisions for programs that include an audition, interview, or
port folio review may require a longer review period.
Transfer students are also encouraged to file appli ca tions as early as possible, preferably online and by February 1, for
summer session or fall semester. Transfer students filing complete applications by that date can anticipate notification by
April 1. Students filing applications after January 1 can anticipate notification in late spring.
How can I check the status of my application?
For general information, you may use the status check feature available through your MyPennState account.
What will Penn State evaluate when considering my application for admission?
Admission decisions for Penn State are based on a variety of factors, all viewed in relation to each other. The most im-
portant factor, the student’s high school performance, accounts for approximately two-thirds of the admission decision for
first-year students. The remaining one-third of the decision is based on other factors, which may include standardized test
scores (students taking the ACT are required to complete and submit the writing component), personal statements, and
activities lists.
Should I send letters of recommendation?
Letters of recommendation are not considered in the evaluation.
Are interviews required?
Interviews are not typically required as part of the admission evaluation. Those academic colleges or majors that do make
use of an interview, audition, or portfolio review are indicated in the application instructions.
May I schedule a visit to one of the Penn State campuses?
Penn State encourages all potential applicants to visit the campus(es) of their choice. Programs and schedules vary from
location to location, so you should contact the admissions office at your campus of choice for specific information or go to
admissions.psu.edu
.
Does Penn State consider extracurricular activities or part-time employment in its evaluation?
Typically, Penn State has not used this information in reviewing every application. However, we encourage you to provide
both the activities information and personal statement on the application form so it is available for review when we be-
lieve it is appropriate.
Will my chances for admission be affected if I apply for financial aid?
No, our admission process is not affected by financial need. Admission decisions and student aid awards are made inde-
pendently by two separate administrative offices.

Campus Selection
( A p p l i c a t i o n Q u e s t i o n # 3 1 )
If you plan to enroll in a baccalaureate (four-year) pro gram, you may begin the majority of our programs at any campus.
First-year admission to University Park campus is highly competitive. Historically, about 60 percent of our first-year students begin
their studies—and spend as many as two years—at a campus other than University Park. Your final choice of major will determine
where you complete your junior and senior years.
If you plan to enroll in an associate degree (two-year) pro gram, be sure to select a campus where the program is offered. Associate
degree programs are generally not available at University Park campus.
Your credentials for acceptance will be evaluated for each campus, in the order you specify. If you fulfill the entrance requirements for
your first-choice campus, you will be accepted there.
College/Postsecondary Attendance
( A p p l i c a t i o n Q u e s t i o n # 2 5 )
First-Year Applicants
First-year applicants who have taken any college work should have the registrar of the institution(s) attended send us an official
transcript of all work completed to date. A final, official transcript will be required when all work is completed. A cumulative colle-
giate grade-point average of 2.0 (C) on a 4.0 scale, computed in the manner used for Penn State students, is the minimum University
require ment for admission consideration.
Transfer Applicants
Transfer applicants should forward official transcripts from all institutions attended, in the original, sealed envelope provided by
those schools. A final tran script is required when all work is completed.
Even if you enrolled for a brief time and did not com plete courses or earn credit, you must have the registrar send us a transcript or
an official letter verifying that you with drew in good standing. Failure to provide a list of all col leges and universities attended may
result in a delayed admission decision, loss of transfer credit, and/or cancella tion of admission.*
*Please note: Two years of full-time college course work are required for transfer to University Park campus.
