<p>Hi everyone! I am new to this website and I've been reading about very informational things on here! So, back to the subject, I am a sophomore and I have just been accepted to the Wharton Sports Business Academy. I am wondering if there are any alumni and any other people who know more about this program. I have already RSVPed and I just want to know a little more about this program. :)
Questions may include: How many people? How many people applied? Was it a good experience? etc... </p>
<p>Hi, I’m also a new member here. I’m doing my RSVP these days and hope to know more about it. As an international student, I don’t have any information source around me…btw, @Sole174 I’m looking forward to meeting you this Summer :)</p>
<p>Just found something somewhat informative by @yankeeboy23</p>
<p>"Typical day…</p>
<p>Weekday: class starts at 9 with a professor, goes until 12. After 12, you break for lunch. After lunch, you either have a site visit somewhere, or a guest speaker comes in/more lecturing from the profs. That lasts until about 6. Then you have dinner, usually at Penn, but occasionally with your business plan team. About once a week, you go after to a sporting event of some sort. Weekends are always different. Sunday is usually free, although there are occasional trips depending on what they schedule. Saturday, there is almost always a trip or sporting event to go to, but it’s still a lot of free time. However, towards the end of the program, you have to work on the business plan during your free time."</p>
<p>Im also going, @BarcaVelha where are you from?</p>
<p>@Kesler I’m Chinese. There are few people here who know much about or have a strong interest in sports business. It seems that it is already a hot topic in the US,though.</p>
<p>Anyone else here going to the program?</p>
<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>I just got into this program! I’m really excited.</p>
<p>I wanted to know if any of you know how many girls got in this year? I’m wondering if I’ll be one of the only ones…</p>
<p>There will probably be some girls. On the website, there are pictures where there are about 5-6 girls I think.</p>
<p>Actually, I called about it and there are 15-20 girls. :-bd </p>
<p>Can someone tell me how to get into this program? do you have to have some special sports related experience?</p>
@kuttima1215 you don’t need special sports related experience. You just have to be passionate about sports, able to write a good essay, and have great recommendations. Good grades make you a shoe-in. Then, just apply through Julian Krinsky Camps and Programs.
