PSU does not differentiate between in-state and out-of-state for admissions; there are fewer students from OOS because fewer apply. (I am sure they are happy to have the OOS tuition dollars!) The overall acceptance rate, according to College Board, is 52% at UP; GPA counts 2/3 in admissions decisions. Caseys5 is right about applying early. There were quite a few posts here last spring from kids who thought PSU-UP was a safety for them, but didn’t apply promptly and were waitlisted.
