I don't have that one digitally, but I do have the larger one from 2009 which you might think is helpful as well.

Signed my lease today!!

Congrats on the admit and hope to see you at welcome weekend too!

I received my email for verification at 4:00 PM today. It sounded like it was independent of whether you paid the deposit and sent your transcript. The site mentioned there would be no refunds, even in the case you chose not to matriculate.

Then again, I'm a Lauder student so I imagine they need to do our verification prior to our start of classes in May.

I am a small town person and thought that Philly would offer more affordable housing than NYC or Chicago. Boy, was I wrong! I need to revise my spreadsheet section for housing costs.

Wanted to let those of you who are in the verification process know that I recently received an email from Wharton saying mine was complete. I know a couple of you out there were worrying about the status next to the GMAT Score box in the online application site indicating "Not Received," but this status will change to "Received" once they complete your verification. Like I mentioned to all you recent admits, start the verification process early. I started mine a few months ago and only completed it recently.

I don't know how to put this, but I will not accept at Wharton, which I assume will open up a spot on the waitlist.

Best of luck to everyone.
