Really grateful for this acceptance! PSU was originally one of my top choices but I received an amazing fellowship grant from a different program that's difficult to turn down. Waiting to hear back from a few more schools + funding but will try to make my decision soon for people on waitlists

3.91 Post-bac GPA. Research experience abroad and years of experience working in schools with linguistically diverse populations. So happy but still waiting to hear from other programs!

Waitlisted onto the third tier, so likely not to get accepted. Still crossing my fingers, though!

Second tier waitlist

Out of field applicant, waiting to hear back from other programs/funding

3.16 GPA, 3.75 major GPA. Research and undergraduate clinical experiences I got an email today with offer and was shocked! I didn't expect to get in, however I might turn it down but I need to hear back from other schools to make a decision!

Hey to the posters below wondering what's up with rejections, I feel like those are real rejections because I really did get accepted. You probably didn't hear back yet because they are waiting to see how many people accept their offer

Received an email notification that I've been placed on their "first tier" waitlist. A little bummed as this was one of my top choices, but still hopeful. Please let them know if you don't plan on attending ASAP! Congrats to those who have been accepted! :)

Got an email around 6:15pm PST saying that I'm in the first of three tiers on the waitlist. Feels great after two rejections! 3.16 undergrad, 3.51 2nd bachelors. Research experience and several years working in special education and disability services.

Wow.. I absolutely expected a rejection from PSU! Out of field applicant, average GPA (3.64 undergrad), no GREs, lots of personal experience with neurodiverse populations. I'll really have to give this one some thought, but it would require moving across the country, so I'll probably end up giving this spot to someone on the waitlist.

3.9 GPA, 4.0 major GPA. Undergraduate clinical experiences.

HOLY MOLY!!! I am so honored and excited! This is going to be a tough choice to make between PSU and the two other schools I got into.

I got an email 3/7 from Dr. Gildersleeve-Neumann! I will probably not be attending as I was accepted into a very strong program closer to home that's cheaper, but PSU was previously at the top of my list and I'm sad that I will likely have to turn it down. Post-bacc student with a 4.0 in prerequisites, 3.7 overall, Americorps member with years of working with diverse youth and some research experience.
