Penn Law c/o 2021 Applicants (2017-2018) Forum

I've been stuck at UR1 since 12/18. LSAT and GPA above 75th... is this a bad sign?

You're not the only one: I'm in the same boat. I certainly don't think it's a good sign, but I'm also getting the sense that perhaps Penn's timeline is a bit further behind than the other schools I applied to.

How did Penn deliver the bad news?

[jellyjar]

Also dinged today, but I had already resigned myself to that probable outcome, so not feeling to bad about it surprisingly.

Notified via email, had been UR2 up through this afternoon.

I got my email at the same time!!

My hopes for T13 are low.

WL, just got the email.

[virginia_direwoolf]

WL, but tbh feeling kinda relieved about it

Surprised about WL with your stats. You think it's YP?

[LorneMalvo]

Sorry to hear. Did everyone who just got WL or dings RD or ED applicants?

[Jack_Kelly]

Another waitlist for my collection.

Idk, I wrote a Why Penn but I've also been accepted by every other T-14 school besides HYS. I feel weird claiming to be a good enough of an applicant to get YP *shrug*

Maybe they somehow picked up on the fact that I don't actually want to go there and my parents "encouraged" me to apply? Who knows.

[andysimbi]

Also waitlisted.

[porzingis3]

Waitlisted also via email

[chelseacarl4970]

Waitlisted also via email

Did you just get the email? Trying to figure out if I can stop having a mini panic attack every time I get an email.

Yeah I got it like 10 mins ago

I can't help but think, given the WLs and dings today, that my app doesn't stay standing much longer. All I can ask is that they hold off until I get some more good news.

When did you apply? Have you gone UR2? If yes, when?

Applied 12/2, UR2 1/9. With most of my t13 apps, I'm pretty sure the question will revolve around whether the find me compelling enough to keep a super splitter on ice for later. Only time (and eventually the adcoms) will tell.

[ravenclaw12]

I'm still at UR2 since 11/30. What is happening

[playmaker093]

I'm at UR 2 since December 6th and haven't gotten a waitlist email...yet. I assume this means just straight ding

I have the opposite feeling - haven’t been rejected yet! There have been at least two rejection waves and I dodged both somehow. That gives me hope if anything.
