UPenn Waitlist 2027 thread

Does anyone know anything about Waitlist for The School of Nursing?

Would you mind sharing your stats/EC’s and where you were accepted or going? Curious about competitiveness of UPenn. Obviously extremely competitive but used to be much easier to get into than the other schools. Not sure if that is the case. Just read NYU nursing had 3% acceptance rate this year!

Yeah so I got accepted mainly into local colleges nothing that’s to popular and some that are out of state for me for example Penn state, Upitt, Mercer university, University of Buffalo, and some others. My stats are pretty average ngl i have a high GPA but little extra curricular a due to some circumstances. NYU acceptance rate is crazy low!

Not entirely sure, but around 3-4pm CST

Domestic, STEM major, not full-pay

guys. It’s not to make you sad or anything but I think that it’s clearly over. I emailed them 5 days ago and they ghosted me. They made a lot of acceptances… I lost hope but it’s no big deal. Since I got rejected everywhere, I will reapply again next year.
BTW if anyone here will do the same please tell me so we can stay in contact. It was an interesting experience with you guys. The phone guy will no longer call :joy: :joy: :joy:

thanks bro. here’s my insta handle @taha_hass06

You can do 30 credits at any us accredited university (whether in the states or in your homecountry.just look it up on chea.org to check if US accredited) ,get a high gpa and apply for a transfer next year. Every univ has different policies for the transfer admission but they usually have spots available the 2nd year.look it up.don’t give up and dont take a gap year.
