<p>I’m going into my second year in college and am planning on applying for a junior-year transfer to UPenn. I am a legacy and while I’ve read the Alumni Council on Admissions website I’d also be interested in hearing a less formal perspective from someone who has already gotten in as a legacy. More specifically, I’d be curious to hear about anything the ACA offers that you found helpful while applying or which you think strengthened your application. I already know about the interview they will do on campus.</p>
<p>i’m also appling for a junior year transfer at penn and i’ll be a legacy applicant-whats ur major?</p>
<p>where u peoples coming from</p>
<p>johnny are you originally from beijing?i lived there from 00-02. i love that place to death.</p>
<p>anyway, i’m coming from Penn State.</p>
<p>Currently Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at PSU (main), if I got into Penn I would major in Biochemistry there. I’d be interested in minoring in Computer Science if possible … something which is impossible to do at PSU. Ultimately I’ll be applying to medical school though.</p>
<p>I know legacy factor will help if applying as a freshman and ONLY if you apply ED. Don’t know how or if it works in transfer cases.
Did you guys apply as freshmen?</p>
<p>nope…</p>
