Upenn decisions coming after other ivies?

<p><a href=“http://www.admissionsug.upenn.edu/applying/timetable.php[/url]”>http://www.admissionsug.upenn.edu/applying/timetable.php</a></p>

<p>On the above link, it states that penn is releasing decision to RD applicants on 4th April. but yale, harvard and i think all the other ivies are releasing decisions on 31st march. dont the ivies have an agreement where they must release decisions on the same date?</p>

<p>Thats when the decision will be mailed to your house. It will be released online tomm at 5 pm.</p>

<p>don't worry, decisions will be online at 5pm tomorrow.. Decisions are also being mailed tomorrow, but they'll probably not get to you till monday</p>

<p>what if you live in philly? how soon should you expect the mail?</p>

<p>1 day. I checked <a href="http://www.usps.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.usps.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p>

<p>how do you track a decision letter from usps?</p>

<p>Hmm... I find out about my Mayors Scholarship this week. I'll probably get it on Friday or Saturday, assuming they mail it on the thirtyfirst.</p>

<p>I remember when I got in ED I got a packet of stuff a few days later, and I'm only 10 miles from Penn.</p>

<p>chocoman .... did you get any confirmation or anything that they received your mayor's app?</p>

<p>i applied for the mayors scholarship too and i have not receieved any confirmation</p>

<p>cool. glad i wasnt the only one.</p>

<p>I need the Mayor's scholarship. NEED.</p>

<p>trust me....you're not the only one. do we automatically get it? i mean, what's the selection process like? they didn't share a lot of details about the program...so im really confused.</p>

<p>Is Penn punctual with puting the decisions online? Do they put the decisions up at exactly 5pm?</p>

<p>err....are all the ivies releasin at 5 pm?? :eek:
2 rejectns in a span of 5 min....
thnk god mit rejected me weeks ago :D</p>

<p>where's the site to check your status again?</p>

<p>The decisions won't be up at 4:59. </p>

<p>But at 5:00 they'll be up.</p>

<p>As for the mayors scholarship, they give out like 40 of them. A friend of mine claims that she is the only philadelphian she knows that didn't get it, so...</p>

<p>the site will probly crash just so you're all aware, and it's also possible that penn might do what brown is doing, which is a staggered relase.</p>

<p>i.e. Brown is not releasing everyone's decision at once, they sent out e-mails the other week telling you what time to check. For me it's 6, i saw other people on the board mentioning that they had to wait untill 6:30, or 7, or 7:30.</p>

<p>Anyway, i would advise not trying to go on at 5pm, it's probly not gonna work, and you're just gonna go crazy.</p>

<p>Well, I mean..other college's sites worked when they released their decisions. For instance, Duke. They opened up at 7 pm for everyone and although it was a little slow at first, it really wasn't bad. So, I don't think it'll really matter too much. I would think that they'd just do it all at once like some of the other schools (ie. Duke) for convenience.</p>

<p>so what's the site to check it at again?</p>
