Penn / Wharton Applicants?

<p>Is anybody else on this board applying to Penn/Wharton?</p>

<p>yea, but I think its kinda hard-_-since I don have any significant EC</p>

<p>apply ED.....</p>

<p>i am too, ED</p>

<p>with fin aid ?..</p>

<p>ED here ( 10 char<)</p>

<p>Penn is really good about financial aid for ED candidates...they know that if they weren't, a lot of people would hesitate and choose an EA program instead.</p>

<p>i might apply for regular decision ( you know just to try my luck ) i need fin aid (and lots of it) and im not a very stellar applicant either..je</p>

<p>Wharton is the best for undergrad business, there is no doubt about it. However, who knows what Wharton really looks at. There are quite a few "well-round" kids in my school applied Wharton 2005 and 2006 but nobody got in, among them, 1 got in Princeton and 2 got in MIT in 2005; 2 got in yale and 1 got in Princeton in 2006. Hey, don't tell me Wharton is better than Yale, Princeton, MIT...</p>

<p>If you know that business is your goal, there is an MBA ahead too. Many people think that undergrad business is overlapped a lot with MBA, therefore, other undergrad majors would make more sense in this case. My suggestion is, besides undergrad business programs such as Wharton, Sloan, Ross, Stern, Haas... there are top undergrad economics programs out there such as UChicago, MIT, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Berkeley, Yale, Northwestern, UPenn, Columbia, UCSD, USLA, Michigan... I myself truned down Yale, NYU Stern Scholars, Michigan Ross Preferred Admission... for UChicago Econ.</p>

<p>Just my two cents. There are whole bunch of selections out there, if you could not make Wharton for some reason.</p>

<p>Wharton undergrad is often considered as MBA outside of United States.</p>

<p>biztogo, are you international? if so, where are you from?</p>

<p>Maxy: I am not.</p>
