I’m not 100% sure if everyone sees this same thing when they log in, but I don’t think the admissions office will show any explicit “hint” by giving different notifications on portals, this notification is more like diplomatic language on the admissions office’s side and doesn’t need to be interpreted.
I think trying to interpret decisions through portal-fu like altering web links and poring over admissions office corporatese is likely to make the situation murkier instead of clearer. You can make it, it’s only nine more days!

How many nursing applicants get them do you think?
Sorry, I have no clue
Admissions offices aren’t connected with financial aid offices. Even so, there’s usually no deadline for financial aid documents because this happens all the time with those who are admitted, so if you get in and don’t immediately get your reward because of a submission error, you’ll be fine (with no consequences, unless you turn them in in like June lol)

I did!
did a lot of people apply for the LSM program. I was just wondering what the expected number of applicants would be.
does anyone know how many ED applicants were deferred? For the class of 2023, Penn said that they accepted 16% of deferred applicants, but I doubt that applies this year since it’s a weird year…
I also heard that they reject the majority of applicants in the ED round (just over half), and defer about the same number as those accepted:
I know this article is outdated, but I doubt it has changed drastically since then (unless it has?)
definitely has changed, especially with coivd this year - more people applied ed and numbers were through the roof!
I was deferred ED, I don’t think Penn releases data on how many people are deferred but the ED acceptance rate was the lowest it’s ever been. The letter said they typically accept 14% of deferred applicants though
Did you submit a LOCI after deferral?
yes
Good luck! Son didn’t.
14% is really high! Harvard has something like 2~3% acceptance rate for deferred applicants

yeah, all I know is that at Penn, being deferred is more advantageous than not (the director I spoke to confirmed this). HOWEVER, the acceptance rate is still very low so we shouldn’t assume we’re shoe-ins just because we were deferred although the deferral to acceptance rate is almost triple that of just RD
At least it’s not like MIT or HYP
