Also UCR1 today.

Any other UR 2/22'ers in the house?

[Save_Ferris]

It's a miracle. UCR also from a 1/18 complete. Here's to a quick turnaround!

+1 I was starting to think they had lost my app

Same. Complete since 1/24 finally UCR today. It's encouraging to see some movement, even though I feel like I still have a bit of a wait ahead of me before getting a decision.

has Penn been handing out rejections yet? worried that my ucr 1/17 just means they are waiting to put me in their first big wave of rejections

[cookiejar1]

Checking in! UCR 3/6.
Went complete, 1/23.

Don't hope too hard.

A lot of us have been UCR 2 since 2/13.

how long from ucr to decision ?

I had UCR1 on 2/21/2013, UCR2 on 3/5/2013. Still waiting.

[LRGhost]

We still think there are acceptances coming or are we firmly in WL territory?

any UR1 2/7ers here?!? Are we doomed??? It's been a month now.... I feel like it's been bad news for those who move extremely slowly from UR1-UR2 but im praying that isnt the case!!

Good luck to you too! Good news is coming!

Finally went UCR1 yesterday after a January complete date. Debating sending in the Dean Fitts essay, but not sure if it's worth it as a splitter (probably waitlist/ding territory). Thoughts?

Why wouldn't you

Could be a waste of time and I don't like the prompt. :p

It seems to almost always be the case that sending the supplemental essays is a much a better idea than not sending them.

I'm really surprised this isn't part of TLS wisdom by now. In all of these threads, it seems like the trend is that people who get in, possibly with scholarships, sent in a Why X? statement, and people with equally good numbers who get WL'd chose not to. Not universally the case, but clearly a strong trend.

I am UR1 2/7 too, and the lack of movement is not making me feel positive vibes from Penn. I'm thinking WL at best for me.

Honestly I'd feel very optimistic in your situation too. Getting URs that aren't part of waves seems to be a very good sign based on what we've seen so far. NO JYNX
