I was also confused about this. I assume they may have left the same website code they had for incoming freshman and they forgot to edit that out.

Advice: Make sure your reasons for transferring essays are solid. Youâre basically answering the âwhy this universityâ question within it.
It seems like everyone is getting accepted left and right⊠This is honestly so disappointing. I didnât think Penn admissions would be this incompetent for this year. smh :neutral: My acceptance doesnât mean much of an achievementâŠ
Finally Iâve been trying to find other people in nursing haha! I canât pm yet
Removed EM address

Has anyone heard back with financial aid yet?
@tfs73 more people getting accepted, if thatâs the case, doesnât diminish the quality of the school or who itâs looking for. The percent admitted hasnât been above 10% in who knows how long; it was 5.9% last year for transfers. Itâs a huge achievement regardless.
Nothing back from financial aid yet?
Is there a GM for the admitted?
@SunnyD342 I went to the accepted students webinar yesterday, and they said theyâre working on a GroupMe (and a Facebook page, if Iâm not mistaken). They should be coming soon, I think.
@ccheriem Nah I havenât heard back yet. Have you?
Is Penn State University a highly rated school to transfer to UPenn from?
I notitced some folk on here are attempting to transfer from UPenn from North Carolina schools⊠Does the school necessarily matter that youâre trying to transfer out of from? Does UPenn have certain biases towards certain schools?
@xal123 Iâm not sure if anyone else has heard back yet, but I got my financial aid notification on the 21st. Definitely attending!
Also an FYI for anyone who may not knowâthe 2020-21 Penn student transfer Facebook group is up.
Hey @ccheriem whatâs it called? I canât find it. Itâs only showing UPenn Transfers 2019- 2020 and 2018-2019âŠ
Hi! For those whoâve committed already, how much was the deposit? I canât find a specific amount.
