| Dear WhartonAdvisor,
I am a high school senior who was rejected from Wharton School of Business at the U. of Penn under the Early Decision program. As time progressed, I got notice of all of my colleges and to my misfortune was rejected almost everywhere except for my safetys, Rutgers U. and Boston University.
I am very interested in Wharton still and want to transfer there as a sophomore. Can you give me some advice on course selection and extra curricular involvement that might help me succeed in transferring?
Also, I have had a high school curriculum geared towards the sciences and engineering related courses such as Calculus BC, physics, chemistry, etc. etc. Would it be to my benefit to take up an engineering curriculum during my first year, or to go into the School of Arts and Sciences with a focus on Economics so that my transfer into the Wharton School might come easier?
Ever since my junior year of high school, I have desperately wanted to attend the Wharton School. Being turned down caused great sadness, but it caused me to relook at my application and look forward to transferring as a sophomore. Any advice you have on helping to make this transfer a success would be immensely appreciated. Thank you very much. (I intend on attending Rutgers U in the fall) |
