oh well RIP

Do you figure that accounts for people double-deposited or withdrawing?

They've already extended offers in addition to the already full list of depositors, so even with some withdrawing the class will be full. The AC member told me that she expects some - but few - offers to be made over the summer. The AC member was unable to disclose overlapping deposit stats.

Anyone submit an additional essay (besides an LOCI)?

Dang. :( But yeah, I sent in an essay and a snail mail letter.

^ Yeah this is what I heard a couple weeks ago.

Man, so class is not only full but overenrolled? NOOOoooo D:

At this point I don't think an additional essay will help (but I guess it doesn't hurt). I wrote one way back when I was held.
When/if they pull people, they'll probably pull people who are willing to attend Penn at sticker and willing to accept even if class starts in a couple weeks.

Good luck everyone! Penn was/is my #1 so I'll be sticking around as long as possible!

Talked to an admissions person just now on the phone (they called me to gauge interest). They said they have reason to believe spots will open up on Friday and that the admissions committee is meeting on Friday. Also, seems like there is no merit aid left.

I didn't get this email, so I'm trying not to get my hopes up that they haven't solidified their 75th yet :|

Sorry to hear guys.


If you don't mind me asking, are you a splitter or reverse splitter?

Good luck to those still waiting!

Got the relatively less depressing WL update email as well. Definitely surprised I hung on, and I really hope they need more reverse splitters!

I guess they are keeping some reverse and regular splitters in case they end up with a last minute median crisis.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
