I’m a senior that applied ED to Penn and will be receiving an admission decision tomorrow aaaaa.
I’m international, from Ecuador, and applied for aid (a lot, so I know my chances of getting in are 0).
My stats and profile are over any student that has gotten into Penn from Ecuador, so maybe, just maybe, PWS might be a thing? I check off most boxes (high need, developing country, good profile). I know less than 20 students get it each year, but, what do you think Penn prioritizes the most for PWS? The fact it is a really underrepresented country? The potential of the student? Do you get notified of PWS before your admissions decision?

I’m so nervous
