<p>Does Penn look at third quarter grades for RD applicants? if third quarter ends in say late march (around 20 march) and decisions come out march 29, would they look at the third term grades? What about for a WL RD applicant- then would third quarter grades have a big effect?
Please help, anything at all is greatly appreciated..</p>
<p>-And on another note, not just penn specifically, do all schools look at 3rd quarter grades for an RD or WL- RD Applicant? Thanks everyone!</p>
<p>Or is the mid year report the last item for grades they look at until (if) accepted then they’ll look at final grades for year also</p>
<p>I think the only time 3rd quarter matters is if you are wait listed … I’m not sure though! You should e-mail Penn and ask!</p>
<p>Thanks so much! That’s what I was thinking also! And I will probably e-mail as well, just checking for some CC input first :)</p>
<p>-- would it be a red flag if say you are WL and don’t send third quarter grades/ anyone know if sending them is mandatorY?</p>
<p>another school’s third quarter may end march 30th. or any later time than that. so they couldnt mandate them. also, by the 20th im sure they are done with decisions… if not for a couple. by then the accepted students are looked over by the financial aid office. someone check me on this if im wrong, but that first sentence does make sense.</p>
