<p>I got an email from UPenn 4 mins ago:
Thank you for applying to the University of Pennsylvania. We will be posting Transfer Admissions Decisions online on Thursday, May 13, 2010 at 3 p.m. EDT.</p>

<p>Your decision can be viewed by going to:
<a href=“https://www.admissions.upenn.edu/decisions/mydecision.php[/url]”>https://www.admissions.upenn.edu/decisions/mydecision.php&lt;/a&gt; </p>

<p>Please bookmark this web address. You will not be able to log in until 3 p.m. on May 13th.</p>

<p>The Decision website uses the same User Name and Password that you’ve already been using to access the MyPenn Applicant Portal.</p>

<p>For those who do not check their decision online, we will be mailing decision letters.</p>

242

<p>got the email just now</p>

243

<p>Also got the email. Does anyone by chance know if financial aid packages are sent out with decisions, or do those come later?</p>

244

<p>crap my prof hasnt sent my rec letter yet.
hope he does so by this weekend and it doesnt affect my decision</p>

245

<p>does anyone know of the stats of those who apply and those who are accepted?</p>

246

<p>What school do you go to, lol? 95 = A??? I am pretty sure the standard is 93-96 A and 97-100 A+…</p>

247

<p>STJ in Queens, NY there are no A+ here. a 94 is an A-.</p>

248

<p>94 is A-?? That’s outrageous.</p>

249

<p>tell me about it. thats why i have a 3.94 gpa. my test grades in calc were 90, 98, 101, and 85 and i got an A-. and the 101 was on the final. i barely missed a 4.0</p>

250

<p>That’s just ridiculous… Anybody know what is the grading policy at Penn?</p>

251

<p>Anyone not get the email? I’m just wondering to see if every single applicant actually received the sent message.</p>

252

<p>i got it. so 3PM EDT is also 3PM EST?</p>

253

<p>It is definitely 3pm est. Think about it, Penn is located in the EST zone.</p>

254

<p>EDT = Eastern Daylight Time
EST = Eastern Standard Time
They both refer to the US Eastern time zone, where Penn is located.</p>

255

<p>45daysinrome: Did you get your email yet?</p>

256

<p>it’s relieving, but frightening at the same time, thinking about how fast the Penn adcom is turning around these decisions.</p>

<p>it seems like everyone’s decision will be posted next Thursday, as opposed to the “1st bunch,” “2nd bunch,” etc. deal of previous years</p>

<p>the folks at Penn really know what they’re doing, unlike those at some other schools who take months</p>

<p>and for the record, I also received the email today.</p>

257

<p>Hmmm, I strongly doubt all of us will receive decisions on Thursday. It… just doesn’t seem possible? I mean, you have to consider the fact that they have over 2000 transfer applications. </p>

<p>Also, there was an identical email sent out to last year’s transfer applicants, and some CC’ers still received decisions 2 - 3 weeks after May 15th, 2009.</p>

258

<p>Anyone bracing to get rejected? im a 3.7 from a CC and am already expecting to get rejected… sad… no hope for me…</p>

259

<p>I got the email too! lets just wait and HOPE to get in :)</p>

260

<p>My English class is from 2 - 3:20… so I will have to wait 20 minutes plus 10 to get back to my dorm… Anyone else have class during 3pm on Thursday?</p>
