How do the results come out?

<p>I know that we can check our decisions here: <a href="https://www.admissions.upenn.edu/decisions/mydecision.php%5B/url%5D"&gt;https://www.admissions.upenn.edu/decisions/mydecision.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>But I remember hearing about other people checking through their emails too. So do universities, especially Penn, send the decision via both methods?</p>

<p>And for the decisions website (the link above), does the result show right after we log in?</p>

<p>I just want to make sure because I don't want to randomly click and accidentally find out my results. Thanks :)</p>

<p>Anyone???</p>

<p>DS was regular decision, but seem to remember he logged in and results were there. Same with Stanford and Yale. An email may come out telling the release date/time, but I think the email does not say yes or no.</p>

<p>Agreed with capenn15. My friend who got into Penn ED last year said it’s all on the portal, though you may or may not get an e-mail saying that the decision is “up”. The e-mail, if I am correct, doesn’t state the actual decision results. Good luck to us all!</p>

<p>Alright! Thanks so much all.</p>

<p>I was told that they also mail you a packet with the offer letter in it.</p>

<p>@capenn: What does DS mean? I see it everywhere, but I’ve never figured it out.</p>

<p>Rush10 - DS is darling son…dear son…d (filling the blank) son…DD is about daughter…DH is husband…ect.</p>

<p>prayer: Yes you get a letter if you are accepted which includes more info…plus FA info. We found the website to be very helpful…they do email you to remind you to do tasks, etc.</p>

<p>So is it just like one huge word saying accepted/deferred/rejected? or is there a whole letter and if there is a letter what does the acceptance letter look like? :P</p>

<p>^ It looks like this:</p>

<p>^44 states? So there were some states that had ZERO penn EDers? ha wow!</p>

<p>Anyways, I think I just drooled over that acceptance letter :D</p>

<p>I was just wondering, does anyone know if you have to click to see the results? Or rather, is it, once you log-in, the letter (linked above) pops up?</p>

<p>Bump ^
I would also like to know to mentally prepare myself for next, next week. T^T</p>

<p>seeing 45 percenter’s linked picture made me really excited lol XD</p>

<p>Omg, it’s only next week now…9 days left…</p>

<p>Omg good luck!</p>

<p>My sister applied to Penn last year. I think once you login, the letter appears. No click to another page.</p>

<p>@ToBePremed: Ok, thanks!</p>

<p>The decision portal is the only way to view decisions online for both ED and RD cycles. You will receive a packet in the mail, but a few weeks following the online release. Good luck!</p>

<p>What day do the decisions go up?</p>
