Just realized I switched to UC2 on Dec 14th! (my UC1 was Dec 6th)

From what I've read on the thread, is it safe to assume I will probably find out in January?!

Sorry to ruin any positive vibes but I'm way below both medians and also just became UCR1.

Hey all, for those interested in off-campus housing, I found this while searching online. Not sure how accurate it is but it appears to be helpful...

Yeah, you're not kidding. Doormen? Shit, if I get into Penn I'm just hoping for an apartment with an on-site washer and dryer.

EDIT: Fitness centers too? F that.

They're generally coming off gigs at i-banks or consulting firms. They seriously live it up, from what I've seen around town.

2400 Chestnut is a popular choice for grad students, though, and rent isn't awful for a 2BR if you share.

Ha, when I looked at Penn Law's housing webpage (not that I have an offer :( ), it said that the rittenhouse square was a popular choice for many law students. So I looked up this place, and rent was like 3k-4k/month. I was like, huh? seriously?

Probably 2Ls and 3Ls, and that might have been pre-Recession.

Literally on Rittenhouse Square will run you a pretty penny indeed. But the larger Rittenhouse area has plenty of more reasonable options. I know 1Ls who lived there.

I'm amazed how many 1L's spend $1200+ a month on rent, tbh (well, just guessing based on where I know people live and how much those places cost). Maybe they just have wealthy parents/families helping them out, or don't realize how crippling the debt can be, or maybe they just have a lot of savings, who knows. But I just think its excessive and unnecessary.

Yeah, basically all the 1L's I can think of who live in center city live in the Rittenhouse area.

Super noob question: Does the status checker actually indicate a differentiation between UCR1 and UCR2? I went UR on Dec 1, then the date was later changed to Dec 10. So am I now UCR2? Thanks

If you remained at "Under Committee Review" with the date changing from 12/1 to 12/10, you're UCR2. There's no indication of such on the status tracker itself.

And congrats.
