I know what you mean inkofvixx!

I think them saying they have 3 rounds based on how earlier you turned in your application is crap. I still stand with the 1st round for strong acceptances/rejects, 2nd round maybes/rejects, 3rd round wait-listed people. If they did other-wise, then that would completely be rolling admissions (which they say they are not).

Thanks for the update jack!

forgot to mention, the admission rep said they were in the process of mailing out PINs. I guess then just make sure you have it by 5pm on Friday of next week.

also it's time to stop the rolling admissions crap. May 16th will decide 90% of our fates.

jack_bauer76 did they say they were going to mail or email the PIN? Is there anyway we can find it online?

You would think that a school as old as... you know... the United States could have figured out how to expedite the admissions process by now.

I've been accepted to Rice, and I have half a mind just to bag this whole Penn business, and head to Houston instead. What do you all think?

transferguy, PINs will come by the way of snail mail not email. I'd say that they would send them out by at least next Monday, so that they arrive by Wednesday/Thursday at the latest.

Just out of curiosity, how many of you who received the login ID are applying to CAS? It seems like the majority of the people in this thread who received it are Wharton applicants. Am i wrong?

didn't someone mention that those who did not receive PIN's were the people who used the common app?
