Congratulations everyone!! Does anyone know if it would be appropriate to attend one of the winter coffee chats? I haven't had much exposure to Wharton and thought it might be helpful to find out more...

What are the winter coffee chats?

PS- Congrats on your acceptance! Did you decide between Wharton or Kellogg?

Winter coffee chats: https://mba.wharton.upenn.edu/events/ I imagine they're primarily for R2 applicants who are getting ready to apply. I haven't decided between Wharton and Kellogg >.< (Hence, wanting to find out more) Planning to attend both admit weekends. I want to make sure there is enough personal development/growth at Wharton.

Me neither. Are we supposed to?

eriginal · Answer

Booth sent me a scarf and a key chain. I haven't gotten one either though... I want some Wharton swag! Totally going to effect my decision

Malluce · Answer

Anyone starts the Re Vera process or see any change on their checklist (e.g., verified transcript/ GMAT scores...etc) after submitting the form?

Hi, I just started the process a few days ago and havent seen any change yet. What about you? Is your verification completed now?

BschoolE · Answer

Congrats everyone! I got some swag from Booth, Sloan, and others but not Wharton. I wouldn't hold your breathe (and definitely wouldn't let that seriously affect your matriculation decision!!!). Anyone choosing between schools? Looks like I'll be picking Wharton over the others

eriginal · Answer

Lol definitely not effecting my decision, but always like some good swag...

I got into Booth, Columbia and Wharton. Wharton was a no brainer for me. Going to Welcome Weekend?

Has anyone seen their Re Vera status change on their checklist?

Has anyone seen their Re Vera status change on their checklist?

HopefulOne2015 · Answer

Hi, yes, mine changed from something like in progress to completed in about 3 weeks after I started the process. My transcripts were marked "official" early on but my GMAT was still marked "unofficial" until a week after the whole verification was marked "complete". The confirmation emakl was sent a week or two after my status had changed to "completed" online. Hope this helps!

iadoreyooh · Answer

Mine was just completed! GMAT still says unofficial though...

DrZ · Answer

R2 Admit here. Congrats to all!
Can you (R1 admits) share your ReVera experience? What do they check? How long does it take?
