I recieved an email from Penn on 1/12 asking for Fall 2016 grades. I sent in the relevant information (as well as a letter of interest) the next day. Is there any expected timeline for when I'd hear back?

Waitlisted. 25 < GPA < 75, LSAT = 75, URM. I'm kinda sorta shocked.

Anyone have any idea how long they are taking to process applications? I am currently "under committee review". I submitted early January and have been "under committee review for a bit over a week. Can I count on an answer in February?
My GPA is a bit above the median and my LSAT is above the 75th percentile. I also wrote a Why Penn and an optional essay.

I don't know about how long UR2 usually lasts, but do you mind me asking how long you were on UR1?
