Are we allowed to send multiple LOIs?

Could you? Yes. Is it ethical? No.

 

[packerfan5]

Sorry I meant to the same school. I forgot detail in my first

That makes more sense lol. I believe 1 letter of intent is standard. Any additional letters would be application updates if there are any significant changes to your application. However, Penn State doesn't accept updates so I wouldn't.

are you bound to the student housing contract for all 4 years?

it says in the contract that you can terminate it at any time with 60 days notice

[aquaboi]

No, just wondering!

I emailed them about this and they said as long as you're working on getting them done and you let them know then you'll be okay.

 

[bigman4325]

yeah WL and a call

 

[mmiller41]

yeah WL and a call

When were you WL?

 

[matchamedicine]

Do you think they'd tell you where you stand on the WL if you asked? I want to know if I have any realistic chance at a seat or if I'm just at the bottom of this list *sad face of despair*

 

[flyqueen]

any WL movements?

 

[calcuttaho]

To anyone who has been accepted: did ANY of you NOT submit a letter of recommendation from a non-science faculty? If anyone is on the GroupMe and wants to do me a solid, please ask.

[Nerdbehavior123]

whats the chance of any more calls going out today LOL?

 

[matchamedicine]

People who have gotten the call - can you share the number they called you from? If I am a lucky chosen one, I don’t want to accidentally ignore it thinking it’s spam 😅

for me it was a couple hours after I received the offer of admissions email. I'm not sure if it'll take longer for you because of the weekend

 

[mmiller41]

Did you submit letter of intent? And call or email?

 

[eFAST]

Did you submit letter of intent? And call or email?

I submitted a LOI, and got a call from the office

 

[mmiller41]

Can anyone share when orientation is for PennState? Wondering when the last day we could be accepted is…

July 14 (according to their website)

 

[Rubberducky14]

Anyone else heard anything?

Not a peep. I think I may just DM their instagram and beg for a response either way at this point lol. Or maybe a carrier pigeon would be more effective idk

 

[zzzzzzz123456789]

anyone hear anything today or reach out recently?Just wondering if WL movement has ended

 

[mmiller41]

Dead silence

 

[Rubberducky14]

The dean replied to my question about additional recs and said the committee is continuously reviewing our completed applications (which we already know from the waitlist notification email)… but that’s all I know. Oh and the general admission email was a little snippetty about me reaching out to the dean (like she said to!)

Yeah whoever responds to admissions questions from the admissions email could be a little more courteous and professional. I know we’ve been told there’s no timeline but they’ve gotta put themselves in our shoes and realize that it’s torturous to wait this long—especially with deadlines coming up.
