UPenn ED Class of 2022 Discussion

I can’t imagine what I’ll be doing tomorrow at this time. Either I found the perfect school or one step closer to finding it!

is anyone else’s portal empty? like the list of required documents is gone now and all there is is financial aid info, decision release info, and school info?

@justtrynagetby They updated it a few days ago. Everyone’s portal is like that

You’re not alone. Mine looks like that as well.

I can’t believe there’s less than 24 hours left until we find out. I’m so nervous but also excited, not just for me but for everyone on this thread. CC has often been portrayed as a place of hostility, yet I have seen nothing but support on here. From hearing about slime-making to laughing at that quaker oats comment, I am so glad that you all are the people I got to experience this process with. No matter what happens tomorrow, you are worthy and brilliant. I hope to meet all you wonderful people at Penn, but if that doesn’t happen we have to remember to remain strong and hopeful. I believe in all of you!!

Anyone know when we get our financial aid packages?

How much do they care about class rank? I’m 20/803 (top 2.5%).

I’m so scared; all my friends, even those with legacy and faculty parents got deferred from Harvard, Barnard, Stanford, Swarthmore, and other colleges over this past week :frowning:

@Burrito12 thats why i wonder if legacies/ faculty parents have an impact:(

I have been watching UPenn acceptance videos on YouTube and realizing that that is going to be some of us tomorrow.

@collegeboy2319 Can you check Naviance or ask people you know? It’s completely different depending on your school, but for the past 3 years, every single faculty child that applied from my school has been accepted (7 or so), most of them children of HUP employees. A friend at Penn told me that try to take as many as they can, assuming all of them are qualified (within top 25%). Legacies at a lower rate, around half, usually less qualified.

@sophunicorn It’ll be me! Will it be you?

anyone else wearing penn gear to school tomorrow?

@pennplz right here

@pennplz I don’t have school tomorrow but I sure will be wearing my Penn anorak!

Just spent 10 minutes on the floor petting my dog and honestly it was the MOST relaxing thing I have done in 2 weeks 10/10 would recommend if you have a dog/cat.

@wildesfeuer thats so relieving to hear. Still expecting rejection though. My dad is an HUP employee and i even got a letter of rec from a physican at upenn hospital from shadowing him during summer. I am ranked 24/530 (top 5%).

I’m wearing Penn merch Thursday!! B-)

@penn2022 i really really hope so

I’ve been silently stalking this thread for months now, but all I can say to break my silence is you all are wildly intelligent, witty, kind people that I hope (fingers-crossed) will be my people next year :slight_smile: good luck to everyone tomorrow! Even if you have doubts right now, just try to stay positive and speak your dreams into existence! Penn 2022 is our future
