Is this the first time it's gone UCR? It usually updates again when it's picked up by a second person. (UPenn says sometimes there's a third person to look at it as well).

I was accepted a few days after the second UCR.

Also under review today for the first time. Seems like they are reviewing all the early February completion dates.

Edit: I went complete on Feb 12 and had a brain lapse when typing before.

Also under review today for the first time. Seems like they are reviewing all the early November completion dates.

I went complete on 2/15.

[DanInALionsDen]

I went complete on 02/05... still NOT UCR. Whyyyy???

[poslhs]

I sent them my additional essay via email and fax.
Do they confirm that they added it to my file? How long should I wait untill I ask them?

+1, and +1 on UCR as of yesterday. Brief spate of butterflies in my stomach- I guess I'm not totally deadened by the waiting process.

Good luck everyone!

Went under review 3/5 and now again 3/25, hopefully a decision is coming soon.

After being waitlisted ? If so, I did the same a few days ago and called today. They said they're behind but should send out a confirmation soon and found mine in the system to let me know they got it.

I posted this is in the In At Penn thread, but had no bites.
Will Penn notify you if you are receiving $0 in aid - like Chicago does? Just wondering because I have heard nothing and was accepted back in December.
I e-mailed Penn, but they are taking forever and a half to respond.

I got a merit scholarship, but I also received a separate email telling me that I am not getting any need-based aid. So I'm going to guess that everyone will get an email at some point.

Thanks!

[sumus romani]

I *did* get a notification of need aid a couple of days ago. So they are working on it.

[FCD]

Finally UCR as of today, went complete 3/1.... *fingers crossed*.

[existenz]

WL via email today. Was UCR 2/18. Don't really care and will be withdrawing.

+1. I take it the time from the 2nd review date to decision varies fairly widely?

I went UR the first time 3/15 then again 3/22, still waiting. Hoping tonight's the night I get greatest phone call or email I've ever received... feeling a bit pessimistic though after a slew of waitlists.

[Lurkster]

Waitlisted, and with that, I have pretty much given up on this cycle.

Guess so. I was UR 3/3, again on 3/9, and no update since.

UCR for the 1st time as of yesterday. Went complete 2/03 (obnoxious considering they received my materials around Christmas). Too little, too late, alma mater of mine!
