When does Penn State release Regular Decision notifications?

I'm waiting to hear back from Penn State and wondering when they send out Regular Decision results. It's getting close and I’m super eager to know!

Penn State employs a rolling admissions process, which means they evaluate applications as they are completed and there isn't a specific date when all decisions are released. Generally, it can take anywhere from 4-6 weeks to receive a decision once your application is complete. Remember that peak times may extend this timeline considering the volume of applications coming in.

However, Penn State does aim to have all decisions by April 1st. If you applied Regular Decision and haven't heard by late March, you might want to reach out to the admissions office to make sure there isn't any missing information on your application.

While waiting for the decision, try to keep busy with other things – schoolwork, hobbies, or extracurricular activities. It’s common for the wait to feel a bit long, but before you know it, you'll have your answer. Good luck!
