We study the semi-classical limit of the nonlinear Schr$#x00F6;dinger-Poisson (NLSP) equation
for initial data of the WKB type. The semi-classical limit in this case is realized in terms of
a density-velocity pair governed by the Euler-Poisson equations. Recently we have shown that the isotropic
Euler-Poisson equations admit a critical threshold phenomena, where initial data in the sub-critical regime give
rise to globally smooth solutions. Consequently, we justify the semi-classical limit for sub-critical NLSP initial data
and confirm the validity of the WKB method.
