Re: Penn c/o 2015 Applicants (2011-2012 cycle)
Maybe Penn has a more extensive (and consequently, slower) process? I applied to Columbia about a month after Penn, and received my acceptance nearly a month ago. Not sure if I just got a random acceptance today, or if it'll be one of those days--I'm pretty sure there are a couple of other folks in the thread with second UR dates around mine.
<Edit: Also, I just actually READ the email, which said that I should have received a phone call by now, but like an idiot, I didn't put my phone number in my app, so obviously that doesn't apply>

Me too azgirl, 12/6 forever and ever.

How Penn chooses which files to review:

Harry Potter, of course, represents the admissions committee at Penn, while the Dursleys represent us hopeful applicants, looking on in confusion and fear.

Re: Penn c/o 2015 Applicants (2011-2012 cycle)
waitlisted today at 5.42 pm via email
early december submit UCR 1/27 and 2/22.
I was well above LSAT 75% and at median GPA, wrote 2 supplemental essays. Also both my parents went there. wtf Penn?

Added to the list of waiting. Not a list I want to be on, so probably withdrawing.
