Penn Waitlist 2022

@Esmith1799 I read earlier that you called before. Do you have any info on what they said when they call, not just from you, but from anyone? What have they said?

@ElCapitan33 it’s a lot of the same thing. “Wait a few more weeks” “admissions is slow this year” “we can’t tell you how many people are on the wailist” “our classes aren’t full”

@Esmith1799 Admissions is slow this year? I swear, there better be a bombshell of notifications then soon.

Some people in the Questbridge facebook group have received rejections via email as of 12:24pm today.

“admissions is slow this year” , If true, the admission office needs new leaders.

As mid-June is approaching, we will soon get the release WL email. LOL.

Why does Penn keep rejecting more and more people but seemingly not accepting any??

QB has special admission process. The decision notification for QB is much earlier in both ED and RD.

@f2000sa so we could get the same emails in a few days?

Along with the topic of rejections, being 100% honest, have any of you guys heard of anyone who got OFF the waitlist this year definitively? I have not, and it seems that Penn has not taken any at all.

@chknlover Did anyone talk about being accepted?

@ElCapitan33 I have not officially heard of anyone myself.

@Esmith1799 which would normally mean that the class is really overenrolled (or even a record yield) which we probably would have heard about by now. I mean, Ivies love the promotion. If Penn had a record, they would be flaunting.

@f2000sa QB only has a special admissions process during the Match process, which was in December. As far as I know, now that RD has rolled around, all QB applicants should in the same pool as everyone else.

@ElCapitan33 I didn’t see anything about acceptances in the group.

@chknlover Yikes, we’re doomed hahahaha

I know Penn has admissions meetings on Friday’s. Maybe some of us will hear some good news this Friday.

They will announce their yield after the admission session is over.

Just heard one girl at my D’s school, off Stanford’s WL. She was admitted to MIT and Princeton. In this case, MIT and P would have one seat open? or it’s counted in the yield already. The yield should be based on 5/1 acceptance day, right?

@Laketahoe79 No, it doesn’t work that way because she didn’t commit to both schools. Only if she committed to MIT and then got off stanford’s waitlist would MIT have a seat open.
