it depends how long it takes for you to go ucr for the 2nd time! how long are people getting answers after the second ucr? is it a phone call? (if you get in :) )

I'm guessing this means WL / reject bound?

This is me too. But I'm hopeful that we were just a little too late to hear in the first round because there was only one 12/15 that heard, IIRC.

I'm starting to get SUPER worried that I was the only 12/14 UCR to not update. For some reason one person looked at my app and then apparently decided it wasn't worth passing on to anyone else. Even if they want to reject me I should've still updated to a second UCR by now if only for confirmation that I should get dinged...but nothing. Penn - you're driving me CRAAAAAAZZZZZYYYYYY!!!!

But not so crazy that I don't love you anymore. You're still my favorite. Please love me back.

As long as you haven't been read a second time I think you are still just waiting for one reason or another. Maybe they are holding you over until the next wave. The worst case is that you are borderline for whatever reason. Update your transcript if you can to make your case stronger. Good luck!

Glad I'm not the only one - did you guys write a 5-yr penn essay? both of your numbers are stronger than mine - I don't see why they would pass up on you.

Anyone know what the timeline is like on the Toll scholarships? I think all TFA that are admitted are nominated, but I'm afraid I applied too late for it even if I get in..

I think scholarships invites came out late Jan. last year. Levy and Toll around the same time.

In other words, if I just went complete I'm screwed? :(

WE GET IT PENN, ARLEN SPECTER IS GOING TO TEACH A CLASS THIS FALL. YOU CAN STOP RETWEETING IT 1000 TIMES.

Sorry, but I had to get that out.
It's a big deal. I am excited for it. We have a class by Rendell and I can't even get on the waiting list it seems.

I don't know about that. Since these are not open applications, who knows when the real deadlines are. Besides they give same amount in generic dean scholly so I would just worry about getting in first.

Complete a while back.

From what I read, the process kind of goes:

1) UCR

2) ???

3) UCR again?

4) Decision

Is this correct?

+1. I believe they've said they're resuming decisions on the 7th, guesses on how soon after that those of us who recently had a 2nd UCR date will get a decision?
