Transfer Admission
Wharton has a two-year residency requirement. No credit toward the degree can be given to candidates on the basis of work completed in any other program. Students can gain waivers for up to two core courses in which they have considerable experience, allowing them to take more electives.
Deferred Admission
Wharton does not accept applications that are submitted in anticipation of entrance beyond the next immediate academic year. Accepted applicants who wish to postpone their entrance may, however, request a deferral by writing directly to the Director of Admissions after having received notification of acceptance. Deferrals will, in most cases, be granted for a period of no more than one year. If the deferral request is granted, a deferral deposit will be required to reserve a place in the class; the deposit will be applied to the first semester's tuition. If the deferral request is denied, the applicant must choose either to matriculate in the class to which admission has been offered or to reapply for admission at a future date.
