<p>What date do we get a decision back and is it through the internet?</p>
<p>I highly suspect that Penn’s going to release decisions around Dec. 15th, rather than early like last year, because some parts of Philly is still undergoing the influence of hurricane Sandy now. Hope it helps</p>
<p>^Aww… well I guess it’s better to expect less than to get our hopes up about decisions bring released before the Dec 15th deadline!</p>
<p>I’m nearly positive it’ll be Dec. 15th b/c of Hurricane Sandy delays.</p>
<p>^ Don’t bet on that–the ED application deadline also was postponed last year because of a freak October snowstorm that shut down much of the northeast, and ED decisions were released on Friday, December 9th, similar to the timing of the year before. I’d be surprised if ED decisions weren’t released around the same time this year. You’ll find out the date within a few weeks.</p>
<p>^Haha at least I’ll have closure sooner rather than later then.</p>
<p>Well, it’s nice of them to tell us when our hearts will be crushed/practically crushed/infused with a shot of sheer exuberance before it actually happens. </p>
<p>Will the date be shown on the Portal, or will be get an email?</p>
<p>^ Both. If they do as they have the past several years, the date will appear on this web page, which will also be where you log in to get your decision (not the regular admissions portal):</p>
<p><a href=“https://www.admissions.upenn.edu/decisions/mydecision.php[/url]”>https://www.admissions.upenn.edu/decisions/mydecision.php</a></p>
<p>And you’ll also get an email with that link and info.</p>
<p>^I see, thanks! Gonna start obsessively checking my email now.</p>
<p>45 Percenter - do you happen to remember what date that was (when they notify ED applications of the notification date)?</p>
<p>I tried doing a CC search, but couldn’t uncover anything on this.</p>
<p>I think they released their decisions about one week early. Penn will make an announcement about when they will release scores sometime in the near future.</p>
<p>foxtails (and anyone else who’s interested), last year, the Penn Admissions Office revealed the December 9th decision date on December 1st:</p>

<p>^Thanks for the link!</p>
<p>Guess that means we can sit back and (try to) relax through Thanksgiving break… </p>
<p>December will either be a tough month (time to work on those other schools’ apps!) or an exciting one.</p>
