has anyone actually received the official WL email?

I never even got an email notification of being dinged from the WL, and at this point it's 10pm EDT so I wouldn't expect one. If I wasn't incessantly checking the online portal I would have had no idea. Really poorly handled, Wharton.

Log into your application—you should see a link to your application status. Click the link and a new window will pop up with your letter.

Dinged.

Sorry for reporting so late guys. Had slept off since I got no call and then saw the ding letter when half asleep. Came to work in second half.

Planning to re-take GMAT (yes, attempt #5), bump the score above 700 and re-apply in R1.

Waitlist ding. Such a bummer, but not entirely surprised as I knew of two people who were admitted from the waitlist at the end of February (around the time that the deposit was due, I think?). Based on my extremely limited sample size I think the majority of waitlist admits were notified earlier on in the process.

Have a friend who was a Rd1 Waitlist but was accepted yesterday with the Rd2 applicants.

April 30th is the response deadline, though I'm not seeing any info on a necessary deposit. From what I can tell so far, first payment of any kind is tuition due at the end of July. Anyone see otherwise?

I remember reading that a $2000 deposit was due and would be applied toward the tuition.

Does anybody know if there is any way to get feedback from the admissions commitee?

I had mailed the adcom member I had interviewed with to seek some sort of feedback or hope for the future but received a very curt response that they do not give any feedback!

It's a $2,000 deposit that goes with the acceptance of a place in the class, due April 30. The deposit is the same for all three rounds.

Just want to confirm whether all ding letters have been as below:

'Please know that we have many successful re-applicants each year, and should you chose to reapply in a future year, we provide ample guidance on our website to assist you. Please follow the procedure to be included in next year's application. All reapplications will be reviewed within the context of the overall application population at that time.'

Admitted guys,

could you tell me when the welcome weekend is?

Many thanks,
Waldemar

It's April 12-14th. Friday seems to be about academic pursuits, Saturday's more social, and Sunday is basically just brunches with affinity groups.

Are people setting up housing tours or anything of that nature during Welcome Weekend? Some places I've looked into that seem decent so far include 1835 Arch, the Loft apartments, and a new high rise called 2116 Chestnut. Any thoughts from current students?

Have you joined the Wharton '15 Facebook group? If not, you should, because there's a lot of housing-related posts there.
