Ugh I feel this. I have to keep working but settling on June since I get paid out for my PTO/Sick days. Until then I’m just doing the bare minimum lol

bare minimum quiet quitting gang 🤝

 

[madamemichaelscott]

volunteer with an animal shelter (because i've always spent my volunteer time with people and really want more cats in my life), plan out an apartment (thrift everything!), read some fantasy books, sleep a lot, spend a lot of time in the sun, exercise and train for myself. It's only 2-3 months and you deserve a break

taking inspo from this, also i <3 cats too heheh

facts but the gap year is a bit of break hahahaha
genuinely have so much respect for anyone who can go straight through though I was so burnt out by graduation

What do you plan to do then from April to school? I’m considering when to quit my job as well.

3 months in solitary confinement so that lectures and studying are fascinating in comparison. Gotta increase that dopaminergic baseline

Sweet! My guess is Monday 3/4

I feel like I read 3/1 somewhere

 

[WaluigiWAH]

Dear Applicant,

LMAOOOOOOOOO bro what were you thinking 😂😂. Even our patients have higher sGPAs. Goofy ahh.

Sincerely,
The Committee on Admissions.

You are absolutely my favorite person on this website

 

[WaluigiWAH]

I feel like I read 3/1 somewhere

They'll probably try to release decisions right before Harvard releases theirs, so as to not get overshadowed. My guess is either 2/29 or 3/1

 

[Doc_McStuffinz]

Pre-II R today, complete mid July

Did any of you receive a confirmation email after submitting an update letter to the portal?

I didn't receive an email, but when I click on the title of the document I can open the pdf, which I am assuming indicates that it was uploaded correctly.

Thank you for the response!! <3 I didn't receive one either, so I wanted to check if this was common. @PositivityPanda @anon19503486

This may be a dumb question but who’s the dean of Admissions at Penn? I know it was mentioned previously that Dean of the school and dean of admissions are not the same so I’m assuming it’s not Dr. Epstein?

 

[deleted1167274]

Does anyone know when second look at Penn will be this year?

 

[ethosexymide]

Anyone else so stressed about decisions???? do we know what day they are coming out

 

[procrastinating_cheetah]

My guess is March 1st. Also stressed lmao.

Timeline from an interview session said mid-March

Damn forreals?! I was totally anticipating March 1-4th ish

Are you sure it wasn't by mid-March? I don't think they typically release decisions that late

 

[deleted1143918]

Here's the info from past years. Found it in an old thread and added the past few yrs

2023
- A: 3/2 (Th)
2022
- A: 3/7 (M)
2021
- A: 3/3 (W)
2020
- A: 3/2 (M)
2019
- A: 3/6 (W)

this is buried a bit but here are the dates for the past couple of years

pretty sure it'll be 3/1-3/6 sometime. maybe 3/4 or 3/6 since they seem to like Mon and Wed

 

[applicant2323]

It could honestly be by mid-March. But I honestly took a screenshot of their timeline and they said
March (mid) - Decisions announced, Submit CSS Profile
So whatever that could mean

 

[sillychemistry]

Second week of march is literally so late ugh

Gotcha, was this recent or earlier in the cycle? In mid-January they said March 1st

This was from mid-November, so my information could be outdated!

 

[Vicariousstress]

Has U Penn given any non-EA acceptances yet? Or did they hold all their spots for March 1?

Nonrolling, we’ll all find out on the same day

 

[BubblyPanda21]

On their website it says that decisions will be released on March 15th, 2024

That's their final deadline ("decisions will released BY March 15th, 2024"), but I would think there's a good chance it gets released 1-2 weeks in advance

 

[toastedbutter]

Do they release scholarship info at the same time or later?

And anyone know when their second look has been in past years?

Scholarships come later. Looked at a couple earlier threads and scholarships seemed to be announced late March/early April

[toastedbutter]

Absolutely not. People on Cornells thread are using their SLW dates to see when they might release decisions. Just trying to do the same (I'm neurotic asf and don't want to wait until March 15 lol)

Wait but I thought they were not rolling? So they are jus gonna release results on some random day before then

Start your countdown to this Friday my friend

 

[oatmilkplease]

Ya my guess is this Friday but we'll see

Harvard is this Friday so I think historically Penn has been around that time too (maybe even before so they don't get outshined)

Hoping you get the washu acceptance over me! 🙏

 

[waiting_game123]

I remember admissions saying they give about 1/3 of the class some amount of scholarship (not need based) money- does anyone remember the specifics on this?

I think the number is either 30 or 34 full tuition scholarships (21st Century Scholarship Program)

What are the chances they would tell this when they give acceptances?

Low. I'm pretty sure they come out in April

It might be even later since FAFSA still has issues.
