Guys, I am an international student Wth SAT 1430 and TOEFL 98. I haven’t taken any subject tests but my personal essays and supplement are above average, well above average. I want you guys to be brutally honest here, is there any chance that I am getting into Upenn?
I submitted my application at around 11:50 on Jan 5. On the Penn portal, it says I submitted my app on Jan 6th. Anyone else have that problem??
@ZBlue17 same thing shows up for me, if you’re not on the east coast it would be because they process the applications in eastern time (3 hours ahead). As long as you sent in your application by 11:59pm your time zone, you made the deadline.
@freshuate I don’t want to say nothing is impossible and that what I think as a high school student is necessarily true but I would have to say the chances aren’t good unless your EC and essays are extremely exceptional. Because your an international student, I would assume the expectations are higher and your SAT is already in the bottom 25%. But I really don’t think anyone should get their hopes up because of how selective UPenn is. Good luck though!
Will we have to wait all the way until April or is Penn good at getting letters out early?
I have my interview this Saturday. Should i bring my resume with me?
Does UPenn accept December ACT scores… my scores just came in yesterday??
They probably will…send them asap.
Do you have to notify Penn that we want an interview or something? I haven’t been offered one
I was told that an interviewer would likely contact me, but I have not been contacted so far.
Out of curiosity, which other schools have you guys applied to?
I also haven’t been offered an interview
I have not been offered an interview… what is the latest date by which I can expect an interview invitation?
@chipshark If the new ACT scores help your case, definitely submit them.
@ZBlue17 You don’t need to tell them anything they are supposed to contact you first
Got my interview tomorrow!!! Hope it goes well…
When can I hear by for an interview
Had my interview yesterday. Went pretty well
Did my interview today, and it went swimmingly! My interviewer was terrific, and it lasted about an hour an a half. Typical questions you’d expect from an interviewer, and we did have a conversation about how Penn was thinking of playing the Trump card, if you know what I mean. Good luck to everyone else!
