<p>My school is on a quarter system, will Penn look at my first quarter grades?</p>
<p>When you say quarter system do you mean two quarters in a semester? If so, are quarter grades part of your transcript or are semester grades part of your transcript? I think Penn only cares about grades that are on your transcript. NOw, if your school insists on submitting your first quarter grades then I guess Penn will look at them.</p>
<p>I believe it depends on the whole ED/RD thing. If you apply ED, and are on the fence, often they'll defer you so they can see your first quarter/semester grades.</p>
<p>yeah two quarters in a semester first quarter ends in mid november.</p>
