UPenn ED Class of 2021 Discussion Thread

i think im a little late but i love hip hop: drake, kanye, chance, childish gambino. also love korean hip hop: aomg, illionaire, zico, crush, & dean. also a big fan of show me the money :stuck_out_tongue:

Do we have to submit ACT and SAT if we’ve taken both? What if one is better than the other?

@dudeIMniceAFtbqh whoa… I wouldn’t know what to think either. I would give them a call and try and find out more. How do they want you to submit that letter?
Perhaps this could be a good thing… It could mean that they really like your app and they want you to drive it home for them. Maybe your Penn essay wasn’t convincing enough? Idk.
Don’t worry though. Just try and find out what they want. No one here would know.

Best of luck!

Just submit the better of the two scores because Penn allows score choice now! But if you haven’t already submitted anything yet make sure to rush your scores!! @johnwayne8321

@dudeIMniceAFtbqh thanks dude

@dncn888 I don’t think that Penn takes the CSS Profile… if you need aid, definitely fill out the PFAS asap. I called the admissions office before, and they said their deadlines were soft.

@sunrae Ah that is amazing! I only play recreationally, but I am so ready to go hardcore :smiley:

@dog2347h Computer and Cognitive Science: Artificial Intelligence… anyone else?

@dudeIMniceAFtbqh that is definitely an amazing sign, I would say you might be a definite admit. What are your stats if you don’t mind me asking?

@dog2347h can’t hurt to send them…at least they will have them if you are deferred (I would only send them if they are an improvement). If you are in the “maybe” pile, maybe it could help!

@nomusicnolifex they actually do accept the CSS Profile, if you’re searching for aid!:slight_smile:
@Palak786 I’m applying for aid, I need it desperately. Are you?

@1150sobremesa I am not applying for aid. I am an international applicant, I will be outright rejected.

@Palak786 why will you be rejected?

If you never opened the email saying “Your portal decision is ready” or whatever, and you waited a week, might Penn start sending emails about general Penn accepted students stuff? So you could kinda know without looking at the decision directly?

@sajeunesse you’ll get a letter in the mail… But whats the point in waiting lol

No point I was just curious @Dartmouth_21

@sajeunesse for international students it’s very hard getting into Penn with a lot of financial aid since they aren’t need blind towards internationals

@sajeunesse It’s really common for Penn to reject international applicants requiring aid as it becomes need aware for us! Even with great stats, intl students cannot get in if applying for aid. Hence, I applied without aid.

What does everyone think about decision date? Is 9th more like or 16th?

Ohhh ok thanks for the info! @Palak786 and I think it will be more like 16th
