Regarding Penn, it says: "*University of Pennsylvania: Yield of 62.9 percent, a slight increase from 62.7 percent last year. It plans to accept about 45 students from its wait list."

That's what I was looking for. Thanks again!

Thank you, Parentofpeople.

Still waiting for that e-mail from Penn though.... my D said the admissions counselor said it COULD come as early as this past weekend but it didn't.

@rbrbbrc I am very happy for you! Did you accept? I can only hope my daughter gets a call. Penn is her first choice. Best to you!

I hope your daughter gets the call!!

I got released from the waitlist today. No worries, though, as I am heading to a college I love.

Well, that's it for CC--it has served me well, but I don't ever want to see it again. Bye!

Released from the waitlist today. I hope that picking up a call from an admissions counselor or regional representative was not pivotal to being taken off the waitlist, because my cell phone doesn't have caller ID and I did receive some missed calls in the last weeks. Oh well, it probably wasn't Penn anyway. Congratulations to those who got in and best of luck to everyone!
