UPenn ED Class of 2021 Discussion Thread

ive never felt more uncertain and stressed about this whole process until now

Im really just hoping for a miracle at this point

Tried to work on supplements for other colleges to take my mind off everything, just made me sad :frowning:

aw guys remember exactly this time last week we were anticipating the release date FOR the release date and a lot of us wouldn’t have expected that exactly a week later we’d be so close to getting our decision. Whatever happens, I wish you all the best! I feel like it’s so easy to say “it’s all gonna be okay, you’ll be successful wherever you go” and that’s so fricken true except right now when someone tells me that or when I read it on here it slips through my mind and I literally care about nothing else but Penn and I know that’s bad and I have second choice schools but nothing compares to my love for Penn and I know a lot of you can say the same. :frowning: Good luck, everyone!! May the decision be ever in your favor. :slight_smile:

I wish I didn’t know all the words to the red and the blue

Everytime I get an email, I think it is Penn sending out another email saying just kidding - we’ve decided to tell you the admission decision right now. I don’t know why I keep thinking that but it is only making me more nervous. It’s probably because Penn is literally all I can think about right now.

Are you guys going to turn off your volume when you open your portal? I think I will… expecting the song would make me more nervous lol

@KateHBag Ahh I haven’t even thought about that! I think I’m going to have one of my parents open it for me, I’m too jittery just thinking about it

So as soon as we open the portal, we can see if we were accepted or not? Or, is there another link we have to click on before seeing the decision?

@ryanordy88 I’m pretty sure it says status update and like a “click here” sort of thing :frowning:

Have to wonder why someone as successful as your article suggests would even spend 4 years in school vs. continuing to grow your corporation. You have clients, press, accolades…

random but my favorite show just got cancelled i hope this isn’t a bad omen :///

@xindisun99 omg i’ve been having bad luck all last week kinda too, and i’m just hoping it’s all leading up to a great friday with an acceptance letter.

Anyone from Michigan?

@Writer520 Connections, time to mature, actual knowledge that could help him/her in his/her business, explore other academic endeavors, security in having a degree if the business ends up not working out…do not know the person, just guessing here. there are many legitimate reasons even such a person would choose to spend at a place like Penn.

@andpeggyy same here, im normally not a superstitious person but i need all the luck i can get

Just wondering out loud. I just think most people go to Wharton to figure out how to successfully launch a start up…and to put on a full stop when clients are on the hook and CNBC is writing about you…wharton will be a full tome job in itself. But he must be super efficient anyway to have done so well.

@xindisun99 friday is less than two days away but it honestly felt like a year has passed since monday and i am not ok enough to dismiss superstitions ahaha

@andpeggyy honestly like im so paranoid ive actually been checking my horoscope

For anyone wondering exactly what Penn’s portal looks like when you are accepted, it looks like this. https://youtu.be/C0HDtRIn82E
