2006 Fall Semester OFFICIAL UPENN transfer Applicant Thread!!!

<p>At least they were efficient, stretching things out makes no one happy.</p>

<p>hmm ? 2 posts = not much credibility~</p>

<p>Catcherny1 did you get an email?</p>

<p>I got in.</p>

<p>Also, it was dated May 11th, so I think they mailed some decisions yesterday like they said. </p>

<p>I apologize for the earlier "freak out" version of this post.</p>

<p>Goodluck everybody!</p>

<p>must be nice to actually get some sort of decision</p>

<p>hey congratulations km86!!!!</p>

<p>Congrats KM86 :).</p>

<p>hey, ive been looking at this for a while because i'm also a transfer app. but expect to be rejected</p>

<p>stats
college gpa 4.0 (texas lutheran university)
highschool gpa 3.3ish
SAT 1270 ACT 27</p>

<p>ec
high school dance team officer and member for 2 years
work 20hrs a week
college:
SGA senator
young dems founder and president
member of sorority
work 10 hours a week
i think i had some other stuff on there that i dont remember, i'm just doing this from memory
i might have put speaker at ethics bowl but maybe not...</p>

<p>i went to community college the summer after i graduated, took 17 hours and got a 4.0</p>

<p>EXCELLENT essays
and hopefully recs.</p>

<p>so, right now, i'm trying to move out and get my rejection.</p>

<p>however, i'm thinking since they release financial aid info at the same time, the later i get my decision the better because that means that they'll have to do my financial aid packet and i sent that stuff in WAY late, like the day of the deadline my mom overnighted it.</p>

<p>oh, also i sent them a letter telling them that i stay up untill two in the morning looking at their website, and that they were the only school i applied to, hah.</p>

<p>i figured it wouldnt hurt.</p>

<p>oh, yeah, and i sent them supplemental info, pictures of ceramics...</p>

<p>now i'm remembering all this stuff, it seems like ages ago.</p>

<p>okay, last post untill someone replies, hah.</p>

<p>lol about the two a:m letter! dunno-guess u just have to chill and see if they take u- u never know with these schools...</p>

<p>yeah, i feel like my app would be really strong if it wasnt for the stuff in high school, i'm just hoping that since i'm from the san antonio area, i speak sign language and i have a 4.0 now that it'll overweigh that stuff. plus, my essays rocked.</p>

<p>anyone else ready to give up on penn for the night?</p>

<p>i'm done with upenn until i get something in the mail</p>

<p>how lame.
.</p>

<p>Congrats to those of you who have been accepted!!</p>

<p>Even if I get in, I will be turning down the offer for Columbia. One of you deserving waitlisters will have my spot if that ends up being the case :)</p>

<p>Were those who've received an online decision notified that it was available by e-mail?</p>

<p>Accepted. (see stats in Columbia thread).</p>

<p>There was no e-mail, though. I just went on and I could sign in.</p>

<p>Augie how many times have you been checking? And congrats on the double acceptance.</p>

<p>Layla, checking the Penn page, you mean? I left for an hour, came back and I could sign on.<br>
And thanks... now if only I knew where I should go...</p>
