Nursing 3.9 UW/4.5 W Test-Optional
Interview was meh (only went 15 minutes lol)
Ecs: Hospital internships, volunteering, working as nurse assistant, some leadership positions etc.
Id say essays were my strongest suit tho!
i have the same question i was also waitlisted
On the Common Data Sets, Section C2.
Applied for CO 2027, got waitlisted at Penn, took a gap year to get into penn, only to get waitlisted for CO 2028
first year applied, got WL, hard to digest.
Could you explain how the gap year works for UPenn? Thanks.
last year I think they accepted 147 studnets from the witlist out of 2000ish, honestly, weâll wiat until mid-late may to see but the gap year went by really fast, so youâll need to get the most out of it
@khaptaha is not describing a Penn-granted gap year (under which accepted students may request a deferral to delay their start by one year). Some people like @khaptaha may take their own âgap year,â which is waiting a year after high school to apply (or reapply) for college.
Oh yeah, I didnât know he understood it that way
I just created a thread for wailist applicants, It was really helpful for the CO 2027
This is most recent waitlist data I could find, based on Common Data Set provided by @Metawampe above:
That is the most recent published(class of 2026): last yearâs class (2027) is not released but word around campus was it was very few and none for SEAS because they were slightly overenrolled.
D24 waitlisted at Penn. But weâre totally good. Top 5%, 35 ACT, many APs, but probably didnât do an interview.
Waitlisted. Why so many waitlists?
S24 got in for engineering!
accepted!
Congrats on Harvard and Penn
Accepted, kid is in Europe tonight with her school on break, but I heard the happiness in her voice.
Congrats to all! I have twin daughters who are Freshmen at UPenn and living their best lives! Welcome baby Quakers!
Son was admitted to CAS, for biochemistry and neuroscience. It was a brutal night otherwise (2 waitlists and 6 denials). But very thankful for Penn.
S 24 admitted for chemical engineering. We are in shock, thrilled and did not expect this because he never got an interview. We kept checking the portal for an interview and it never came so we took that to be a pretty bad sign.
