Official Penn ED Decisions - Class of 2010

Mesophyll · December 14, 2005, 6:23pm

Good luck to all University of Pennsylvania Early Decision applicants.

Remember, whether you are accepted, deferred, or denied, everything happens for a reason. I assure you that things work out for the best in the end.

quoted from Chancellor_Phoenix on Harvard’s board:
“Remember this always: Individuals determine destinies, not institutions.”

Also I a new post should be in order because the title should contain our class and to start fresh.

I basically took Reeze’s info and modified it and added the traditional format. REMEMBER DELETE ALL THE SPACES between the BRACKETS in order for the format to work.

umm… what makes this one official? i saw 10 of these posts already but… good luck to all!!

Reeze · December 14, 2005, 6:33pm

the whole reason why I took out the subjective/comments part is because it’s useless. Traditional is overrated

Mesophyll · December 14, 2005, 6:53pm
