http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857 en Upenn Waiting List - LLM GUIDE Discussion Board Sat, 04 Mar 2006 00:26:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#11857 I applied in late January and received a letter of "waiting list position notification". I am pretty down. This result is out of my expectation. Probably I was too confident...Now I am just waiting.... Is there anybody who is on the same boat? Sat, 04 Mar 2006 07:03:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#11870 Hi, Am on the same boat. It's ok friend. We have to wait. Look to the bright side, we are by far more lucky that those who got rejected. However, pray harder!! God will help us pass through this. haha boatkung Sat, 04 Mar 2006 07:48:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#11873 i am also on the same boat as you guys. it is the second time i am on waiting list i have gotten tired!!!!

Thu, 06 Apr 2006 11:09:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#15605 I turned down UPenn offer as well (although it s a great school). Good luck to those on the waiting list. BR Thu, 06 Apr 2006 13:03:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#15614 May I know why you all turned down UPenn ? Thanks ! Thu, 06 Apr 2006 16:17:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#15625 I've turned it down more than a week ago, because Chicago is better for me. Thu, 06 Apr 2006 16:23:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#15626 i also turnred down Upenn's offer....Good luck to those on the waiting list, I'm sure all of you would get in, with so many people who have turned down their offers. Thu, 13 Apr 2006 08:49:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#16371 I called the officer today. Upenn can't make any decision for waiting list ppl right now. They might be able to tell us around May or June or even Aug. They still waiting for a whole bunch of people who haven't respond yet. What do u guys think? ... I think they will lose all students since all waiting list ppl. have other good choices. Is it really worth to wait that long? I think they will not get enough 80 students this yr. Thu, 13 Apr 2006 12:32:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#16386 The dateline for accepted students to pay their second half of the deposit is end April. So most probably it takes time for the office to finalise things before the waitlist is contacted. So hold on, don't give up ! Thu, 13 Apr 2006 14:39:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#16395 Hi all, I've placed in Penn wl last year and got rejection notice around late May-June. Last year there were 50 guys in the wl. Penn says that they don't know hom many people are admitted from the wl. This number varies year from year. Also the final number of LLMs is not the same every year, they can admit up to 6-7 more than the standard number (80). Useless to say taht it mostly depends on the country. I mean, for instance, if two Germans turn down the offer, there will be two Germans which go in. However, this is only a statement based on experiences shared with others who had my same situation, so is not a rule. Besides, August is an impossible date... Visas require a valuable time and summer program is mandatory for foreigners, thus they have to make final determinations relatevely early. Only in extraordinary circumstances (e.g. a sudden declination for personal problem), someone can be picked up from the wl in July-August. The later you hear from them the less chances you have to be in. Nevertheless, I myself got the admission this year after a bad period of illusion-delusion. So, come on! Hope never dies... and, if not this year, it will be the next! Sat, 22 Apr 2006 21:41:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#17078 Has anybody received an answer after being placed at Penn wait list? Mon, 24 Apr 2006 06:01:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#17130 I got no news from Upenn. Anybody here got anything? Mon, 08 May 2006 01:34:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#17817 At Last! Friday I got the admission e-mail from Penn Law. Mon, 08 May 2006 04:54:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#17821 Congrats! RR LL.M. I hope I will join you! Fri, 26 May 2006 17:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/11857/last#18479 I was placed on UPenn's waitlist and I just received an overseas call from the Assistant Dean Adam Kolker offering me a slot. I declined the offer. Hope this info is useful to those still interested in UPenn.
