| how to check the status?? why they do not have a website like columbia. I have used common app to apply, so is there a difference between the common app and penn's own application? |

| You can't check the status. If you are missing anything, they will tell you. | |

| The emails of missing materials were sent around end of April/early May if you look in the 2007 Penn transfer thread. | |

| based on last year's thread and when people got their notifications, how close do you think we are from getting our decisions?
2 weeks? i.e. very early may?
3 weeks....? | |

| Why are people freaking out about status and stuff already. If you're so concerned, call them! They'll tell you. The online status will be up shortly, no reason to panic. | |

| If you call, they tell you that they'll be sending out emails. I know from recent (as in today) experience. I think people are "freaking out" because the wait, frankly, blows, and the thought that a decision could be delayed because of missing materials is a scary one. That, and plain curiosity. Why do you think these threads are so popular? | |

| Well hopefully all my things went in alright. Getting another dean's report or midterm report sent in will be a very tedious/annoying process considering my last day of school is Apr 21. | |

| I called and told the lady who answered that I'd gotten notification that my high school transcript was missing and I had sent it in twice -- and since I paid five dollars to have it sent twice I was wondering if she could check the status of my application because I don't want to have to go back to my original high school which is a two hour drive.
Anyways, she bought it and she gave me the status of my app.
Jack you live in Houston? Where do you go? | |
