I’m planning on applying to Jerome Fisher, the Management and Technology coordinated degree program. However, my question is is Jerome Fisher considered a separate program? For example, could I get rejected from Jerome Fisher but still accepted into UPenn? Or waitlisted from Jerome Fisher but still accepted into UPenn?
Yes, there’s a second college option on the member page of the Common App (provided your first choice you select M&T)
And yes, you can get rejected from Jerome and accepted into your second-choice college at Penn. (as have many)
Good luck!

My son applied to M&T ED with a second ED option of Penn Engineering. He was not accepted to M&T but was accepted to Penn engineering ED. It was a great decision for him. Penn has been a great experience, the school is great and he has made many many caring cooperative friends contrary to what some people post about Penn. And I will say compared to the great schools that my other children have attended Penn’s faculty and administration is much more helpful to the students. That is not to say that the other schools are not good at helping the students it is just that Penn is exceptional. It is a very small college, friendly feel for what is a larger University. Professors are extremely engaged in the students and very approachable.
