ur actually over qualified for Penn State in my opinion--it seems they take eveyone from our HS above a 3.00 and 1000 on SATs.

That's not how it is at my high school.

secondonein, is that school in-state or out-of-state?

secondonein: if you are posting based on looking at your NAviance, you should know that naviance DOES NOT separate admissions to Penn State's satellite campuses and, therefore, it would show kids with 3.0 that are possibly going to, let's say, Altoona.....

Extremely difficult to used Naviance for Penn State UP acceptances......

Secondonein- That is not correct, especially for UP campus. Last year many people were rejected/accepted at branches with over 3.5 GPAs and above avg GPAs.

so....should i count on that as a reach school then?

No, I'd say you are match, but applying for Smeal puts it at match/slight reach I'd think
