Waitlist question

<p>Any internationals here who got a call?</p>

<p>Add me to the list of calls! =D
Yay, I hope what you all have said here is accurate...that would just make life awesome.</p>

<p>congrats, juniorinhs</p>

<p>for all the waitlisted->accepted students:
do you consider your financial aid info. to be correct? I'm just wondering b/c I got $0 in grants and there's no mention of work/study on the PennPlan page...</p>

<p>i'm an international and i didn't get a call. I think the chances for us internationals aren't very high, considering they enrolled 13% int'ls this year, the highest in penn history, or one of the highest.</p>

<p>I've been living in the US for six years but I have a H-4 Visa. So I wonder if I'm considered a domestic applicant or an international applicant.</p>

<p>I was waitlisted for Wharton and I am Indian.</p>

<p>illinifan: You are an international applicant if you do not have residential ID.
If visa is all you have then you are an international applicant.</p>

<p>As a waiting list "accepted hopeful" I do not qualify for aid.</p>

<p>@juniorinhs - seem to remember you from the Harvard/Stanford waitlist threads
Looks like I might end up meeting you at Penn
PS: Where are you international from? Canada here</p>

<p>crib, could you please elaborate on what you meant?
sorry, brain dead from homework and APs</p>

<p>So juniorinhs, you received a call today or a few days ago?</p>

<p>The original call was earlier this week, but my officer and I have been playing phone tag for a bit...
and Yeah, sdong, that Stanford letter was quite disappointing, but this would make it all better!</p>

<p>What if I'm an international who sent my waitlist letter on April 30th by airmail and the letter has not yet arrived at Penn?</p>

<p>I will not get any grants</p>

<p>really, how do you know this??</p>

<p>maybe Crib knows he/she doesn't qualify for grant aid</p>

<p>has anyone NOT received a call? like are we sure it means we'll get envelopes?</p>

<p>I do not qualify for grant aid. Compared to the other college forums, those students who received phone calls said they were being accepted off the waiting list-unofficially. It is only a sure thing when the letter arrives.</p>

<p>seeing that waitlist calls were received by 7-8 CC members, i kinda get feelin that penn has pretty much filled those 20-25 spots.</p>

<p>Anyone have an idea of when the waitlist will be finalized and have all call-receivers gotten their packets?</p>

<p>illinifan: I guess Monday next week would be a good date for when the waitlist is finalized. I got my packet and I would have received my call on Thursday, May 10th.</p>

<p>I called Penn SFS and they said that they would send me my real financial package in a week.</p>
