With Early Decision Results, Penn15 Is So Last Year

By

Class of 2015, STEP OFF. In just a few moments, applicants for Penn’s Class of 2016 will find out if they snagged one of the 1,148 spots open for early decision. As The DP reports, the acceptance rate this year dropped to 25.4% from 26.1% last year. Admissions! They’re kind of scary.

Good luck to all you ’16′ers reading now– and who knows? Maybe one day you’ll be writing a post about early decision.

The acceptance rate actually went down…it’s 25.4% this year.

You should probably read the DP more carefully last time, because the other article you linked to said that IF Penn were to accept 1192 applicants this year, as it did last year, the rate would’ve gone up since there were less applicants this year.

I’m also confused as to why you said it’s scary…?
