congrats :)

I'm assuming that they called you?

Also, do you mind sharing your UR dates?
thanks all! yes, it was via phone call. and I'm currently at disney world also so this is a super happy day haha
I'll be at Disney world all next week. I'm hoping I get at least one call while there. So if penn wants to wait, I'm totally cool with that.

Your profile says your lsat is 170. Did you get in with a 170 or a 161? If a 161, you must have incrediable sorts.

Has anyone with UR2 with 12/17 received the call?
All those who are reporting the acceptances in this thread seem to be UR2 12/8.
I've had UR1 12/3, UR2 12/17, and my numbers are >75 LSAT, >25 GPA.
Hope UR12/17 isn't a waitlist pile..

For the record, I'm UR2 12/8 and I didn't get a call today, so I'd say the dates don't necessarily mean anything at this point.

They aren't going to call you for anything other than an acceptance.

Hmmm, my UR2 was 12/4. Most of the people offered admission seem to have a UR2 of 12/8. I wonder if a 12/4 UR2 a sign of a ding.

Baseless speculation.

When's the Admitted Students' Weekend? Can't wait to meet all of you!

This admissions period has been long and arduous, but I am reminded of this line by Leonardo da Vinci: "It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things."

*I* happened to things. #pennlaw4eva

You *obviously* understand the adjective carping very well. You should pursue a career that allows your vocabularic excellence to shine - like the law? Or. Something.

But in moments of doubt, there is always Rumi:

“silence is the language of god,
all else is poor translation.”
