We are starting to receive applications and are gearing up for a busy next few months...and winter in Philadelphia! Some common questions that we're getting revolve around our requirement for international transcripts to be submitted through WES. This is a new requirement, but it IS a requirement. This helps us evaluate your transcripts at the same level that we're reviewing US transcripts. It takes a bit longer for us to get the transcript and it involves extra payment on our applicants' part, but it is well worth it! If you are finding that the WES transcripts won't arrive by the deadline, PLEASE go ahead and submit your application anyway. We can use your unofficial uploaded transcripts until the WES documents arrive.
