Is it just me or does psu's college application seem a little small? And WHERE is the essay/ what is it??

does anyone know if it is harder to get into Penn State (UP) as an out-of-state student (becuase they affirm it isnt, but that sounds fishy...)


thanks

There is no personal statement to Penn State.

may state schools in PA make them optional for some reason.

Schreyers has 2

why do you even want to go to Penn state? I've seen you posting about it, I think you could get into better shcools if I recall your stats..

Do you just wanna watch their football games or are you a football player or something?

Well, i hav recently lost faith in my abilities? haha. Actually i was considering PSU's IST (CS)program. Graduates from there make an average of 60k a year which isnt a bad sum.

ps ive only attended two football games in my life (at my school- homecoming weekend). Jocks arent exactly my 'ppl' either. Im not popular. I dont drink.

lol

Penn State is by no means only a jock school. PSU Schreyers has better stats than half of the Ivies. It's practically impossible to get into.

And it doesn't cost 30k a year, which is nice.

cmaher who the hell are you to make a comment like that about penn state? Penn State is considered one of the best public schools in the country, has a beautiful campus, and has tons to offer at a price much much cheaper than any private school. You are a moron trying to make a stereotype that all 40,000 people at PSU are just jocks that get drunk every night. As "pathetic" as this might sound it is my reach school and I have worked as hard as I could all through school to try and get in there and I do not appreaciate your comment at all.
