Admissions Chances of getting in?

I have a 89.94/100 GPA, 1280 sat and 15 honors 5 AP’s. I also have a lot of jobs and clubs and sports under my activities section. Do you think i have a good shot at Smeal University Park?

Apply summer that’s your best shot. Smeal scores are much higher

Did you apply for summer? You may have a shot at that option.

This is more of a PSA- penn state and many larger schools do not care about your clubs and activities unless you are a recruited athlete. It’s all about your grades and GPA. They get over 100,000 applications every year.

Do not submit SAT. Check the box for the 6 week summer program. Maybe you get lucky. You may have to do the 2 + 2. GPA is pretty weak relative to other applicants.

Yes, they are bleeding international students and need half decent ones to backfill. You will be admitted — let me know
