So tedious - I fell asleep! The speaker simply reiterated the information on the brochure. He didn't even leave time to answer any questions and was quite rude when asked. |

It was the Wharton information session. A freshman gave us a PowerPoint presentation and covered all the bases. Seemed to know what she was talking about. We signed in afterwards. |

Yes, the information session was really boring. The admissions lady kept trying to do marketing and I was like...we're at Penn, you don't need to market. She should've just gotten to th |

The Senior VP of admissions gave the information session. She was very concise and spoke about what was unique at Penn. Would like to have had more SAT/GPA etc. stats like Georgetowns session. |

The information session was pretty big, but the admissions officer was very knowledgeable and did a very thorough presentation. She also was able to answer everyone's questions. |

The information session was VERY informative and honest - the adcom talked about the interschool programs, Penn's favoring ED, the curriculum, and housing. My personal favorite part was when she mentioned that one of the dorms has a Gilmore Girls nig |

The info sessions are usually very good, although during peak months they are held in a large auditorium to accommodate all prospective students which sometimes makes them impersonal. Admissions officers go in depth into the admissions process and give d |

Quite informative. There were probably 50-60 people there, but the admissions counselor could be heard, and she led important insights into UPENN including admit stats, # of majors, etc. |
