Sincerely, Ralph M. Rosen Associate Dean for Graduate Studies Is there possibility that this is a mistake giving me acceptance, or am I admitted actually?

I think the graduate committee made a mistake giving you acceptance. If the email didn't include directions for the special handshake then it was probably fake.

The dream finally came! Bless all!

called a rep too; she said decisions were mailed out friday. i imagine they are rejection letters, since the admissions chair would've already contacted us via phone/email if we were admitted. why does penn take so long?

"the admissions committee has decided not to admit you at this time, but to place you high on our waitlist for admissions."

Called on rep, who said decisions were mailed on Friday. Emailed another rep who said decisions will be delivered in two weeks. Should I just assume the worst?
