Has anyone here ever gotten into UPenn off the waiting list?

<p>I got waitlisted and UPenn was definitely my first choice. I'm going to write a letter and send it to the admissions office. I read that some people will be sending updated grades? Would that be annoying though? And I don't think grades were the reason why I was waitlisted...so would I still send it? And some people are going to be sending additional recommendations? I don't know any alum or anyone connected to UPenn though. I don't come from a really great high school. Only about one or two students from my school get into the Ivy League every year.</p>

<p>So any advice would be appreciated. :) </p>

<p>And I do know that I have a very slim chance of getting in but you can't go wrong with trying.</p>
