Srajni, if your application was for a program with a Feb 1 deadline, then that is the cohort it will be with for decisions.

Hi Will, I was curious if UPENN has sent out all of its acceptance for the CIS PhD program
AvatarWill Fenton, Asst Dir
10:52
Guest, we have not. All applicants will receive a decision.

For the MCIT Online program, if one is not accepted for the early decision, are they still considered for the regular decision?
AvatarWill Fenton, Asst Dir
10:53
Guillermo, no, if they're rejected for the first round they are not considered again for the 2nd deadline.
Kim

Will, will the choice of concentration influence the admission decision of master program of Mechanical Engineering?  I saw a lot of admission letters from Upenn but with no clarification of concentration (though we select one when we are applying)
AvatarWill Fenton, Asst Dir
10:53
Left, it can, but it's usually used for assigning academic advisors more than anything else, to my knowledge.
Dave

Is there a limit to the number of applications accepted for early and regular admissions of the MCIT online program?
AvatarWill Fenton, Asst Dir
10:54
Dave, I don't know, as that would be up to the MCIT Online program. As they program just started in January I would imagine they're still tweaking actually how many they may be accepting per deadline.
Guillermo

AvatarWill Fenton, Asst Dir
