This is part of the letter: "I am delighted to inform you of your admission to the School of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Pennsylvania. As you know, this program is very competitive and I congratulate you on your academic accomplishments. " But I am not sure about the funding. The whole letter doesn't mention a word of scholarship. If I can't get full scholarship, I can't go anyway. What should I do next? Thanks

Such a generic rejection, it actually got me sick... Two lines... Shame...

I am the "fake" poster. Unfortunately, I emailed Kelly Quinn, and she told me that that was an technical error and actually I was rejected. Frankly speaking, I am shocked and sad. Though I have an informal offer from another very good university, it is a great pity to be rejected by Upenn after they sent me an admission "by mistake". Aren't our rights protected?

Email to check website -- as a response to an inquiry on my status made last week

didn't get the official letter, but can assume i didn't get in. UPenn is so frustrating -they need a more expeditious way of informing us whether we got in or not.

After many phone calls and emails, I was informed it's pretty safe to assume one was rejected if one have not heard back from SP2.

To the original \"fake\" poster: I got that message on the website too and yes it means that you have been admitted. To the poster below who doubted the \"fake\" poster: Don\'t\' you know that you can be a professor as well as a dean or associate dean? In fact, many deans are also professors, including Dr. Rosen. If you wanted to confirm whether he is actually the associate dean of graduate studies or not, maybe you should have looked a little harder.

Note that Ralph M. Rosen is also associate dean of graduate studies. The quoted text is taken from the ApplyYourself decision link. To those concerned - pretty certain it's real. You can call the department yourself to confirm if you haven't heard from Kelly yet.

To the fake results poster below: By the simple reason that Ralph M. Rosen is form the Department of Classic studies and the notifications of the Economics Department are being done by Patricia Rea...

has anyone still not heard from UPenn? i haven't heard anything yet and there's no decision on the website!
