Hi! I think you have a good chance of getting in! It really just depends on your interview, recs, and essays now. Choose which school fits YOU best, not which school you think it would be easier to get into. As far as financial aid, just go to Penn’s financial aid calculator and enter your information. It gives a very accurate predictor of what your aid will be. I know because I was accepted! Good luck in your college search!
@collegestorm what were your stats when you applied? Did you apply ED?
Yes I applied ED and my stats were a little bit higher than yours but I had no hooks.
@collegestorm did you apply for CAS? What was your gpa? If you don’t mind me asking
I applied to Wharton and 4.0 Unweighted.
I’m a candidate from last year. URM, female, low income. Lower test scores. I applied and was admitted RD. I went to Columbia in the end but you are definitely “admissible”. And you will get all the financial aid you need.
@excanuck99 did you get into penn and columbia? Was it through questbridge? What do you think gave you an advantage (essay, recs)? Thank you for your input and sorry for all the questions!
