As of late yesterday, it seems that Wharton’s main web site is down. Most visitors to http://wharton.upenn.edu have been getting the following message:
Server Error
——————————————————————————–
Either the Macromedia application server is unreachable or it does not have a mapping to process this request.
For those of you who are frantically trying to work on your R2 applications to Wharton and are used to accessing your online application via the school’s main web site, the best work around is to simply go directly to: https://app.applyyourself.com/?id=UPENN-GSB. Since the online application is hosted by an off-site vendor (ApplyYourself), it remains up and running despite Wharton’s problems with their own web site.
Of course, this doesn’t help those of you who are still hoping to comb through the pages of the school’s site and gather facts for your application essays. The good news is that Wharton has traditionally been very prompt about fixing these kinds of errors, and that the student2student forums are up and running if you want to pose questions to fellow applicants or members of the Wharton community. You might also explore the ‘Wharton’ category of this blog for facts about the program.
Best of luck to those applicants who are working on applications this weekend!
