Naviance doesn’t separate out my major, so in my opinion it’s worthless if you are applying to competitive majors
at Penn State such as Engineering and Business. You are in the ballpark for Engineering, but by no means a sure thing at Penn State. If you are concerned about admission at Penn State, you could apply for Undecided and then work towards the Engineering major from there. It would not take you longer and you would be a target for Penn State undecided. I wouldn’t doubt you would get in. Keep in mind PSU handle their majors differently than many universities. NO ONE is “IN” their major until they complete the entry to major requirements and apply for admission sometime during the end of their sophomore year in college. If you get “In” to the Engineering major as a freshmen, you are considered “pre major” and everyone…Pre Major and those in DUS (Undecided) that want to major in engineering, take the exact same entry to major classes. So you are neither behind nor disadvantaged by going in undecided. You do have to check though, because some engineering majors require you to be in them earlier than others.
