<p>If so, would you be willing to submit your stats? I am trying to gauge their entrance requirements</p>
<p>I would like to know the same?! Anyone?!</p>
<p>Based on their wording and the wording I’ve seen on other schools’ admissions pages, I get the idea that it would be about as selective as a higher ranked public school.</p>
<p>Note: demonstrated proficiency in a foreign language is a requirement to graduate from their BA programs. Depending on their requirements for this demonstrated proficiency</p>
<p>Take this with a grain of salt, because my analysis is definitely not scientific.</p>
<p>I wonder how well regarded a degree like this is, and how much networking potential you will have. The greatest value in a going to a school like UPenn is the people you meet while there.</p>
<p>Hi,
I applied to Penn CGS in 2007 with a 3.5GPA from a community college. I was rejected because I had one “D” on my academic transcript, despite having 12-A’s and 6-B’s at that time. They also told me that my essay responses were weak, which I felt I answered to the best of my ability. I became so upset by that revelation when I contacted the Admissions Office. Unlike yourself, I was never given the opportunity for Provisional Status that would have allowed me to prove that I was ready to handle the academic rigors at Penn CGS. But Silvia Buan, the admissions director who I talked told me that it didn’t matter. All because of one bad grade that I got in an intro. to Logic class, which had no academic support service in place to help those who were having problems with the classwork. In retrospect, I wished I have never enrolled in that class. But at the time, I wanted to take a course in Logic to help strengthen my critical thinking skills. I never imagined that the class would be so boring and only covered 2 chapters out of the entire semester. It has remained my worst class to date.</p>
<p>I think Penn’s transfer decisions for this year are coming out on May 10th.</p>
<p>Or at least that’s what the rumors on the thread are saying.</p>
<p>The website tells you what the bottom end of the requirements are though. I was accepted with a 3.67 associate degree gpa. I suspect that the letter of recommendations have the highest weight, since some colleges are hard to grade gpa, because of the lenient grading.</p>
<p>Good topic.</p>
