Son Waitlisted: any info on how many students get off waitlist in the past?
Daughter was waitlisted. Sheâd been rejected for the Penn 3-4 dental program earlier in the day with another school, so Iâm a little surprised she even got that. Not holding our breath to get off the waitlist. Sounds like a lot of people get waitlisted and very few get off the list.
This is the last CDS report available, scroll to Section C2. You can Google âUPenn Common Data Setâ to see other years.
Thank you
For 2021-22, 121 came off the waitlist (section C-2)
accepted!!
Did they send out an email? Or do you just go to the portal and look?
DS didnât get an email.
No email. Most colleges donât send out an email, which is super annoying IMO. Just have to check the portal.
I didnât think they would. But Harvard did (not sure if thatâs good or bad lol). So, then I was curious. DS is at an away baseball game so we wonât look at either school until weâre together.
The waiting is
D ACCEPTED! Penn Dual Degree program (VIPER: Engineering and Science)âŚshe is so happy!
(Waitlisted Harvard, Princeton , Columbia, BrownâŚmay or may not stay on all 4 )
Woohoo! Huge congratulations to your daughter!
