I bought a shot glass at Penn while I was there taking 2 classes on campus for 6 weeks this summer… I’m planning to down a shot right before I open my decision, and absolutely CATAPULT the glass out my window if I don’t get in. And if I do, I’ll probably do a few more in celebration :’) anyone else have any plans or little rituals like this they’ve been waiting to do (accepted/rejected/deferred)?
MIDTERM IN THE NEXT TWO DAYS
@bvsw2018 I’m applying from Kansas too. I saw you’re comment about only 3 people being accepted in total last year from here. Pretty disheartening. Which school did you go for?
First…I suggest that you NOT record yourself opening your decision. That should be a private moment, and you should have the right to celebrate or cry without the intrusion of a parent or sibling immortalizing that moment on digital “film.” Second…Penn is a wonderful institution, but there are many other wonderful institutions out there, as well. While you may be a highly-qualified applicant, the reality is that there are fewer spots available than there are qualified applicants for any one institution. I’m sure that you have other highly-selective schools on your list, beyond Penn. Remain open to the possibility that you will land a coveted spot at an institution other than Penn and stop driving yourself crazy!

wait does everyone counsellor agreement say downloaded? And parent agreement submitted? Cuz thats what mine says
@lucianlover77 you can do that stuff whenever but it doesn’t affect your decsision result if you haven’t filled it out
Me!
@Chipotlegurl28 my counselor agreement also says submitted… when was yours downloaded? That will tell us if it means anything.
@onw2018 I’m hoping the low Midwest Acceptance numbers are just a by-product of no one applying… But, I did hear the UChicago accepts alot of midwesterners so that’s a boost for us.
My counsellor agreement says DOWNLOADED but idk when it was. I didnt even look at it till today when I read it on the thread. Wait…what does everyones say?
My counselor agreement also says downloaded
@daththiccboi what does your parents agreement say?
