<p>Would somebody be so kind as to upload a picture of the letter they sent in the waitlist information envelope? I remember them including a blue card (to choose status) as well as a copy of Form 8, but was there another paper as well? Thanks!</p>
<p>How do you know that they wait listed around 4%? A link would be great. Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>@dhcf-It's in the waitlist FAQ from the "view your decision" website</p>
<p>i was waitlisted, but declined to stay on list because I would choose other schools I got into over it even if they accepted me later. Good luck guys, you have one less person to worry about.</p>
<p>So 4% equates to around 900 offered a spot.
Why does this article say 2300!?
A</a> Wait List of Woes for the Class of '08 - US News and World Report</p>
<p>"The University of Pennsylvania placed 2,300 students on its wait list"</p>
<p>2300??????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG</p>
<p>okay last year they had 22,646 applicants, so 2300 is more than 10%
which is more than the acceptance rate?
which means they put more applicants got waitlisted than admitted? *** i think it's a lie</p>
<p>I wouldn't trust the numbers in that article. It says that 500 more applicants were waitlisted this year than last year. That would be more like 1,300 this year, NOT 2,300.</p>
<p>It also says that 30% of waitlisted students will ultimately be accepted--no way. It's more like 30 **students<a href="at%20least%20that's%20what%20it%20was%20last%20year">/b</a>, especially since Penn already has admitted 170 more applicants this year than last year.</p>
<p>Maybe the author confused Penn with Penn State...</p>
<p>yeah that can't be right. penn said in their waitlist letter that only 4% of applicants were waitlisted = 880.</p>
<p>It seems like there's going to be a decent bit of movement on Penn's waitlist coming up soon. Keep this list updated if you hear anything!</p>
<p>It's fairly common among selective schools to waitlist an entire class worth or more of people, so I wouldn't be surprised at all to see a waitlist of 2300, especially this year with such uncertainty about yields.</p>
<p>around what time do acceptance calls come in?</p>
<p>i got in!! i got a call yesterday asking if I'm still interested and I was told that today the committee would meet to vote and to check my email by the end of the day...the rep. emailed me and said congratulations & to check the mail!!</p>
<p>I got the call yesterday too and I told them I'm still interested but no e-mail yet.</p>
<p>Does a call pretty much guarantee acceptance? For those of you accepted, what did your e-mails say?</p>
<p>Apparently, in another thread I encountered. emails will be sent to all rejected/accepted waitlisted candidates to notify them of their status! I think it's the "when do we start hearing from waitlists" thread.</p>
<p>I got a phone call on the 8th asking if I was still interested and I definitely was. The committee got together and I found out via email on the 9th that there was an offer for me in the College of Arts and Sciences (the college which I applied to). I'm pumped! Good luck to everyone else waitlisted...</p>
<p>o poop....</p>
