I'm a current R2 applicant and was just admitted to two grad programs at other schools that can be done as joint degrees with Wharton. Is it appropriate to communicate this to Wharton?
If the programs complement Wharton - ask S2S if you should tell them. If the programs compete with Wharton - don't.
I'm guessing he means SAIS and HKS (decisions were just released).
I'm hoping for a dual degree program as well (go SAIS go!), but I wasn't planning on communicating anything to Wharton because they seem to emphasize the extent to which the applications are completely separate.
But this could be different for you. If you applied to 2 potential dual degree programs, I assume you were only able to indicate on the Wharton app that you were interested in one. So maybe there would be value in telling them about the other. That being said, I like MBAgirl2010's idea - ask about it on S2S and go from there.
