| I replied to Penn on Apr. 18 and haven't received anything yet. Should I be worried?
I sent my deposit on April 18 and still haven't received anything. Does it usually take this long, or did Penn admissions all of a sudden change its mind and decide not to accept me? |

| Haha, I wouldn't worry about that. They only reply immediately if there is a problem. You can call admissions if it will calm your nerves; they will most likely reiterate what I've just stated. Don't forget to send in your online housing application on time, though! | |

| When I sent my thing, it took 2 weeks to get a postcard stating that they have my deposit. Call them if it worries you so much. I wouldn't worry though. | |

| I called them 3 times so far and they continuously told me not to worry and that it takes them 2 weeks to process..
They also said that there's no way for them to check if they received my deposit - lies I say! lol, but yeah. I was worried too, but I think we're fine.. | |

| Check your "acceptance" email...check it twice. If the words "just kidding" are typed below the signiature then you probably should not have sent in the few hundred dollars. | |

| Hm, when I called they said they couldn't check :P Maybe it depends on the person you reach?
Just keep an eye on your bank account, and see if they cash the cheque. | |

| Hey, I heard that you get a free t-shirt once you send in your deposit. Is that true? How would they know your size? | |

| there's a correlation between SAT scores and body size :>
i've actually never heard anything about a free t-shirt. maybe they hand it out during NSO? | |

| They finally cashed by deposit yesterday ;p so I'm not as worried anymore even though I still didn't get a confirmation.
My friend from last year said he got the free t-shirt during NSO.. | |
