<p>@presque I was a semifinalist, too. 
</p>
<p>Do you guys have back up programs? I applied for another program, too, that I am waiting for results for. I want to make sure that if I don’t get accepted to that, I can find something worthwhile and meaningful to do. What did you guys have in mind?</p>
<p>It’s my dream to get into UPenn, so I really hope that I can find a program that I can get a lot out of to put on my college application. Is anyone in the same situation?</p>
<p>@TooSchool4Cool UPenn’s my dream school as well. I didn’t apply to any other programs because I just didn’t find any that I thought would be a huge impact on my app and I have summer plans already. I think I’ll spend some time trying to find a quality internship (probably with a city official or something) and get an actual job. </p>
<p>Awwww congrats everyone!! I love to see y’all so excited about LEAD :)</p>
<p>@anewcrown - Congrats on LEAD Wharton; It’ll literally change your life!</p>
<p>To all those listed as semifinalists, don’t view it as a rejection- there’s still hope!</p>
<p>@presque That sounds like a good plan.</p>
<p>@lydiamanglin Thanks for the moral support! I hope you are right. [-O<
Just out of curiosity, do you know of any great summer opportunities that can still be applied to?</p>
<p>Congrats on those who got into the LEAD Program. </p>
<p>To think that last year I was in your position! I went to LEAD Wharton with Lydia (It’s Arty).
Next year I will be attending the Wharton School at Penn! </p>
<p>You’ll meet amazing people and have brand new experiences. </p>
<p>Don’t be afraid to live a little when you are there :)</p>
<p>I still haven’t received an email…omg what do I do haha</p>
<p>@upennapplicant96 Do you know how easy it is to go from the waiting list to accepted? I heard that it isn’t easy … but I just want to hear your perspective.</p>
<p>@mirmir123 You should probably call LEAD!</p>
<p>@TooSchool4Cool
Yea, I called them. They said I should receive an email before 5. Hopefully it comes haha</p>
<p>@upennapplicant96 Congratz on getting into Wharton! </p>
<p>Congratulations on those who were accepted (where are all of you? I don’t see many posts so far). Has anyone else not heard whether they got in? I’ve called them but am still waiting to hear.</p>
<p>@upennapplicant96 - Artttyyyyy!! I miss you girl!!! 
To think we met on here exactly one year ago… If you’re ever in Ithaca or Boston hmu!</p>
<p>As far as waitlists go, anything is possible! Don’t forget about the possibility of other locations as well- I’m rooting for you, Good luck!</p>
<p>Lets go I got accepted!!! Pretty happy and have learned a lot from this application experience.</p>
<p>For those of you on the waitlist, my cousin applied to this program and got waitlisted. However she ended up getting off the waitlist later on. Have hope</p>
<p>@mubaracus Congratz! Which school did you get into </p>
<p>@AnewCrown I got into UPenn. Is that the one of the better schools to get into?</p>
<p>Has anyone been accepted to any SBI other than University of Penn?</p>
<p>@mubaracus
When did your cousin find out she was accepted the program and taken off the wait list? I was put on the wait list as well.</p>
<p>@mubaracus I don’t know about that. However, the page on Penn is substantial and intriguing. I guess i’ll be seeing you there in a couple months. </p>
<p>Did anyone on the wait list get emails yet?</p>
<p>Nope, not yet. I thought their phone message said we’d hear yesterday :-(</p>
<p>My daughter got accepted into LEAD SBI at Northwestern University. She is attending. Hope to see others post for that same university. </p>
