PEEP 2016

Waitlisted. :slight_smile:

The results are out! I got rejected/waitlisted, I wish you the best.

I’m wondering if my message is waitlisted as well
was that the “we are unable to accommodate you”?

@victorymarching Sounds like it. I’m honestly wondering if this was a real wait-list or if they’re wait-listing every reject so we aren’t turned away from applying to their school. Does anyone have any thoughts?

I don’t think they’d waitlist every reject
 the Columbia fly-in is the same weekend as Penn’s so a good amount of people may reject Penn’s offer.

Hey Patrick, I don’t know where you got the idea of wait list from? That is definitely no wait list it is a cold serving of REJECT (I was turned down too)!

Rejected
this makes me think if I can’t even get into fly in how would AI get into school
Taking penn off my list

I got accepted! I’d love to get to know the kids to got accepted before we meet in October!

Accepted about 3 hours ago! (:

@nadiapersona congrats! Hope more people come along for you! if you don’t mind me asking what major factor do you think led to your acceptance? I just want to know if there’s something I could change for the future (like an essay) versus something that’s kind of already set in place(EC’s) my Gpa and stats were really good so I am wondering that’s all
If it’s something inherent to me I don’t want to bother applying later

@blink24 Hey, both me and my friend got rejected from SOAR even with our “mini-essays”, and we’re still applying to Rice! Don’t let this be the deciding factor!!

@blink24 Thank you! I think my essays really did it for me, they were genuine, explained the reason behind my EC’s while highlighting a character trait like leadership and community service that ik UPENN really looks for. My ACT scores were a 33, but thats pretty average for UPENN i guess. Also I already plan to pursue a business/economics major so I think having some sort of life goal really helps. let me know how it works out!

i got accepted too! :slight_smile: for the people rejected, it really doesn’t reflect that much on you- this program is for URM minorities, first generation, and low income students. it is things beyond your control. penn’s normal admissions are not as specific.

Also accepted :slight_smile: anyway we can add each other on facebook or GroupMe?

I got rejected :frowning:
Can some of you guys tell me your test scores to see how far I was?
@tchung100 @Dartmouth_21 @nadiapersona
I got a 1410 on the new SAT

1440 on new sat. 29 on act. My test scores were pretty bad in comparison to penn I think

@tchung100
thanks

This will be my first time on a plane omg! :((

@Cece0499
Planes are the most dangerous form of transportation 


@Shabeezy 35 act, but i don’t think test scores are as important for programs like this
