+1

Man, I really hope there is an ED boost for EDII or else I'm done for.

For ED, do you think they release it all at once? Or acceptances one day and wl/dings the next day?

Waitlist email yesterday. Not surprising considering I'm a reverse splitter, but good luck to everybody!

Kinda new here so I don't know if this question is obvious or already been answered here but,
I'm an EDII applicant and I've been UCR since the 9th (I submitted my app on the 4th). If we're expected to hear back by the end of the week, is it possible I don't even get to UCR2? Or will my decision just come out later than everybody else's?

Since the mailing for 1/10/18 admits is taking so long do you think there's a chance that it will come with scholarship info?

Admitted 1/10, just got the mailing, no scholarship info. Just two viewbooks and a PennLaw folder. I have to say they didn't come up with the swag like duke did...

EDIT btw i'm in the midwest for reference

So assuming that the last of the interviews slots for EDII were today, think the wave will come tomorrow or Friday? And if so, which? My money's on Friday.

Does anyone have any thoughts about sending a particularly late why penn? I applied back in October and went UCR2 finally in mi-January, should I send a why penn just to be safe or wait for the likely WL (if not a ding) and use it as an LOCI?

I think they'll do EDll tomorrow. Phone calls for the acceptances tomorrow and the official email for the wl/dings on Friday.

I think they’ll do ED tomorrow as well. But I still don’t understand why they did a handful of ED2 acceptances and rejections last week.

Hi, everyone! Current 1L here who wanted to wish you all luck. I was in the office yesterday and they were doing Skype interviews. Lots of movement, which is great.

I’m happy to serve as a resource for anxious applicants. We also just got our grades back, so I can speak a bit on that as well.

Good luck everyone!

*I should add, I was an EDII applicant who had an interview and was waitlisted thereafter. That happened to five of us on here. Three of us are now at Penn! So, no giving up, people!

Do you think decisions will be today or tomorrow?!
