[Pretty-Taro-7927]: "Blast from the past! But hey, if you haven’t heard anything, I think that bodes well for you because UPenn has done two huge purges of their wait list already. If you’re still on there, it’s because they are actually interested in you.

Don’t forget that UPenn was grossly overenrolled last year and ask a lot of people to defer to this year."

add “https” to the beginnig of the link. the website wouldnt allow me to upload a link

The link you sent was regarding law school admissions. I don’t know if the same would apply to undergraduate admissions.

Yep

So is it confirmed that by the 15th we will all hear something?

that’s what i was told when i called the admissions office

I was told that the waitlist is open till the end of June. So I guess we also have that

guys is it weird the admission team stopped responsding to emails about the waitlist? I sent them 2 emails asking and they ghosted me

I would try to contact them via phone call

it looks like there have been some portal changes (no option to submit updates, etc.) - hopefully we hear back soon

I really hope so
(fingers crossed)

Do colleges usually accept people the day the waitlist closes?

the letter was:

Thank you for your application to the University of Pennsylvania. The selection committee has completed its deliberations, and it is with genuine regret that I inform you that we are not able to offer you admission from the wait list.

Your choice to apply to Penn is not one we take lightly. My colleagues and I acknowledge the time and effort you have put into the college search and application process. As you move forward, take your next steps with confidence, and please know of our admiration for all you have achieved.

Rejected as well. That’s sad, because even though I didn’t expect much, I still had some hope - they waitlisted me. Whatever. Didn’t get into any Ivy League as an international in full need for financial aid. I worked hard as hell and now that’s what matters to me.
It’s just depressing that they kept us in uncertainty for so long, since we couldn’t completely move on.
