Wharton’s transfer rate is ~5%. They accept about 20-25 students each year. Even a 4.0 gpa can’t guarantee your chances.

The College accepts ~16-18% depending on the year. So overall, applying to cas would be a much safer choice. Even so, you really need to aim for 3.8+ to solidify your chances.

In the end, I feel it really depends on whether or not you’ll be happy studying at Penn even if you’re not at Wharton…
