Congratulations!!

If accepted from the WL do you have to drop out of consideration at all other schools?
Does anyone know if this is the same at all Law Schools?
How about T 14 schools?

You don't have to drop out of consideration at all other schools. You may deposit at this school (which has accepted you), and, if you make it off another more desirable waitlist, you can always ditch Penn and attend that one. That said, it probably will make Penn very unhappy because they pull from their waitlist to protect their yield rate.

just drafted this email for the adcom; is it fine?

"Dear JD Admissions at Penn Law,
I recently filmed a music video of me dancing my own choreography to a Ciara medley which I personally created; it includes seminal hits like 'Goodies', 'Like a Boy', and my reason for being, 'Body Party'. I'm happy to send this video if you believe it will enhance my overall application. Thank you for your time"

On a serious note- can I tell them that I received a phone call from them yesterday and basically convince them that they actually called me?

I once drafted Russell Wilson for my fantasy baseball team. So I've got that going for me.

Hey y'all --

Got the feeler call yesterday for those who didn't know.

I will, however, be withdrawing.

Didn't want to say this yesterday publicly because I didn't want to out myself, but the biggest reason is because it doesn't look like they'll have any financial aid available off the waitlist, and that's a big factor for me.

Hope I freed up a spot for one of you guys! Good luck!
