***Official Fall 2011 UPENN Transfer Thread***

<p>Accepted. Woo! See you in the fall.</p>

<p>@haveanupvote: you could be in some trouble becozof the C+, but I wish you all the very best for UPENN !!</p>

<p>Accepted to Wharton. Till when are we supposed to reply to the offer?</p>

<p>Ah I had the same thing about the asking for a mid-term report. They asked two weeks ago and I sent one in with all A’s. Just read the rejection :(</p>

<p>Thanks dakhors! I’m pretty nervous about that C+ but Penn wouldn’t rescind based on just one bad grade that was influenced by one bad test, right?</p>

<p>@haveanupvote: i dont think it is going 2 influence much becoz any1 can have a bad exam at any tym n even the admissions officers know that. You must have shown sheer excellence in high school, SAT scores n ur college performance that u were better than about 1700 other students who applied. So according to me njoy ur summer !!! congrats once again !!</p>

<p>do you guys mind posting stats? :slight_smile: (including HS GPA/ what type of school you’re transferring from)</p>

<p>congrats to the admitted students! For those of you that got in, what tips do you have to approaching the penn transfer essay?</p>

<p>Got into Wharton! Longest flight of my life with four hours of delay but this news just made my life :)))))))))) Is Penn going to make us a Facebook group?</p>

<p>Congrats to all who applied / were accepted !</p>

<p>Accepted for SEAS :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: I can’t believe it !! Anyone else from Canada ?</p>

<p>Accepted :slight_smile:
Does anyone know when the financial aid decisions will come out? The “mid to late May” is very vague…</p>

<p>How many transfers does wharton accept? What’s the transfers’ acceptance rate for wharton?</p>

<p>rejected from wharton :((( … I feel sick to my stomach</p>

<p>Accepted! yay, sorry to everyone who wasnt best of luck with everything</p>

<p>When and how do we get our financial aid packages?</p>

<p>Accepted as a junior CAS transfer!</p>

<p>Wharton accepts about 20 sophomore transfers and about 2 junior transfers each year. The acceptance rate isn’t known (since they don’t distinguish the the 2000 applicants) but I’d say probably <3% as Wharton would probably be the most popular program people want to apply to.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what Wharton’s policy is on accepting transfer of credits (such as a minimum grade earned in the class for the credit to transfer, etc.)?</p>

<p>if you don’t get in as a freshman transfer… is it easier to get in as a sophomore transfer…? Do they look at SAT’s and HS transcript less heavily?</p>

<p>From what I’ve read, it seems like for a sophomore transfer they still weigh HS pretty heavily, because they’ve only seen a semester of college work. It’s when you’re a junior transfer that your college transcript and stuff is way more important. </p>

<p>Also, to those wondering about stats, I posted mine in the Transfer Decisions thread on the Transfer page. Congrats guys!</p>

<p>For those of you that got in, what tips do you have to approaching the penn transfer essay?</p>
