Am I cooked

As a Penn alum I love it! It’s clever, hilarious, memorable and shows your support for Penn…I think admissions officers would feel similarly (FWIW) and it could help. As others have stated Penn’s acceptance rate is extraordinarily low for everyone, please don’t beat yourself up that this submission is the reason if you’re not accepted.

Good luck!!

Personally, i love it. But do send them a note saying that while it does represent your true feelings, it was a joke that accidentally got sbmitted.

At first, i thought you had sent it to Princeton!

this is out of pocket i love this energy tho TT

echoing previous comments, Upenn’s acceptances are really low so (maybe) it could make the admission officers laugh (I have no idea if that will work in or not in your favor, though.)

Best of luck with your college applications!!

Haha thanks. Best of luck with your boarding school apps!

I don’t know. Hard to get admitted without even a single line about Joe Paterno. Regardless, I wish you good luck.

Joe Paterno was the coach at Penn State, not Penn.

Yes, I know. It was intended as a joke.

Not sure I get the joke, but ok.

“No, not Penn State — the other school, the one in Philly.”

Maybe like WUSTL did for years until recently - maybe they need to be PIP.

We have family members who still ask our daughter how she’s liking Penn State. She’s a junior.
