Is it wrong to request a College Brochure A Year Early?

<p>I was on University of Pennsylvania's site just browsing around and I seen they had that you can request a brochure. But they said they will send it the summer of my senior year. But I am a sophmore (turning junior) next year and I want it now. Will something happen if I lie and about what grade im in and decide to request it now?</p>

<p>Thank you</p>

<p>p.s. Im taking an alternate route so there wont even be a senior year summer for me.</p>

<p>I think that would be OK…</p>

<p>If you really want to learn about a college, start reading the college newspaper on-line every week.</p>

<p>If you really want it you could e-mail the admissions office and explain why you want it so early. I don’t see why they wouldn’t send it to you. I wouldn’t lie. You can also find out more about the college by talking to UPenn alums, but it’s still early for that.</p>

<p>Thank you for this very important question.</p>

<p>why would you want a brochure? just visit their website</p>

<p>Schools are sending my sophomore D brochures daily. Surely you can request a brochure. </p>

<p>Also, if you have a working list of schools as a sophomore, download info from collegedata and/or collegeboard now. The data on these sites changes yearly and it can be helpful to have some history to detect any significant changes in admissions stats.</p>

<p>“…and I seen they had that…” ??? </p>

<p>If you want to go to UPenn, make sure you know basic english first.</p>

<p>To answer your question though - understand that schools try to get as many applicants as possible so they can select the best possible class and so they can look more prestigious by having a lower acceptance rate (at least to laypersons that don’t understand the math behind acceptance rates).</p>

<p>If you’re interested in the school now, they’re not going to ignore you or try to dissuade you. What are they going to say?<br>
“This person would be perfect, but he showed interest in our school too early.”</p>

<p>how about you suck it? applejackass</p>

<p>Wow. That was harsh…</p>

<p>Yeah, just e-mail them. I e-mailed my first-choice school in the spring of my freshman year (!) to ask for a brochure and got one with no problem. No one wants to alienate a prospective student.</p>
