Penn Law c/o 2020 Applicants - Pending is better than a Penn ding Forum

Did anyone who heard today apply in 2016?

(Or...anyone who applied in 2016 still waiting to hear back aaahhhhhhhh)

Yes - still waiting.

Guess it's not good enough to be >75%ile x 2.

Is this wave over?

I hope not.

Also still waiting, but only one stat > 75% womp womp. :/

It's a shame, I'd really consider Penn if they loved me back.

Anyone know the phone number? I got a couple calls from an unknown Philly number that both dropped... kinda freaking out...!

Update: Googled it and it's them. How bad is it gonna look that I was just like "hello? hello?" when they called me?

"Yeah we were going to admit you but you didn't have good reception so...."

Anyone get a waitlist email?

Not yet, really praying I don't get one of those tonight.

In today at about 3 pm East Coast time! Immediately had to head to my next class that just ended so haven't been free to roam the internet, but I went UR2 on 1/25.

Wrote a Why Penn - was WL with no extra essay last year (i was the one who put up an impassioned status a few months ago agonizing over if I should or shouldn't have included an apology for never responding to last years WL since my plan was to stay west coast). For all the reapplicants, it can happen!

[StopLawying]

Is that it for this week or can there be another wave tomorrow?

[ohgosh]

There's a possibility! Last year there were decisions released all through one week towards the end of February

Do we have to fill out the financial aid documents before the March 1 deadline even if we haven't received a decision yet? And which documents?

[grapefruitjuice]

have any accepted students got word on the toll scholarship or applied? how many people get the scholarship per year?

Invites went out a few weeks ago (to everyone), applications are due Monday. I think about six per year?

This might sound dumb but if you haven't been admitted yet does that mean you can't apply for the Toll anymore?

I was wondering about this too, but I was admitted yesterday and got the Toll email today. Toll apps are still open for now! Good luck!

If you don't mind me asking, what deadline did they give you? I'm curious as to when they'll start evaluating/sending out invites for interviews.

No movement either way from Penn today, huh? Anyone get anything?

[RParadela]

So I'm thinking we have 2 days left (Monday and Tuesday) before we are assured of a WL or a rejection.

Not looking good for the people that haven't heard yet

Why?

Because if you look at past LSN decisions, there were not many accepts in the month of March.

I doubt they would have already admitted the 950~ offers they give out yearly by now though. Do they have an admitted students FB group so we can find out how many people have been admitted?

I just looked it up - there is a closed FB group called 'Penn Law Class of 2020' with 136 members

It was about 550 words. So double spaced, a little over one page.

So for the named scholarships do you have to be invited? I receive the Toll email but was that sent to everyone or just people that they feel fit the criteria?
