LEAD Business Program 2017

Well, let’s start the thread for the 2017 business program. All applications are due by the end of the day today, who else has applied?

Well I applied but I just realized something. Is this program only for non-Asian minorities? I know the NYU branch said that it was only taking minority applicants but does the same policy apply to the UPenn branch?

this threat is in the wrong category

It should be in summer programs, not financial aid and scholarships.

Results will be out in 3 weeks!

1 week left!

Anyone hear back from the program yet?

No, they will come out tomorrow

@knight300 Did you get a notification when your teachers submitted your letters of recommendation?

No, but I got a confirmation email that my application was complete.

Anyone hear anything? Results are supposed to be out today.

Nothing yet.

I’m a semi finalist. Fml. Oh well, I did the app like 2 hours before it was due anyway.

I got the email and I’m a semi finalist too. Wonder how many people they say are semifinalists…

How long did you spend on your application @snow123

I spent an hour or so filling out the online application and a day writing my essays . So around two days doing the whole thing( not including the time it took teachers to write reccomendations and fill out forms) how long did you spend? @CIRCUITDEBATER

I did everything in like an hour and a half lmfao. I applied to LEAD as a last minute back up, but since I’m a finalist for 2 other programs, I don’t really care all that much. I spent a week on my LBW essays so I’ll prob get into that.

I was rejected. Does anyone know if race was part of the admissions process? Thanks.

Did anyone not get a response yet?

I am a semi finalist as well. Spent about a week on my app, have great grades and a high ACT score above 32, and thought my essays were pretty sure. BUT I am Asian, I heard LEAD likes non Asian minorities. Is that true?
