You may enroll in the Penn Alumni Program for the fall, spring, or summer terms. Note that Penn LPS does not offer an admission deferral option; please be sure to enroll in the term for which you plan to begin your studies. Due to recent concerns and potential delays in obtaining visas, admitted students experiencing difficulties are encouraged to contact their program’s staff. Programs are actively working with students to explore available options for beginning their studies.
Your online enrollment form must be received by the following deadlines:
| Term of Entry | Deadline |
|---|---|
| Spring 2026 | December 1, 2025 |
| Summer 2026 | May 1, 2026 |
| Fall 2026 | August 1, 2026 |
There is no application fee for spring 2026; the non-refundable application fee for summer 2026 and fall 2026 is $25.
To enroll in the program, search for “Penn Alumni Program” in our online application and enter your personal information and academic background in the form. Penn alumni do not need to upload transcripts, essays, or letters of recommendation. Applicants who attended a Quaker Consortium school other than the University of Pennsylvania must upload an unofficial copy of their undergraduate transcript in the application system showing a degree conferral date in order to be admitted into the program.
Once your application has been submitted you should expect to receive an offer of admission within two weeks. After accepting your offer of admission, you will be able to register for classes in about a week. Quaker Consortium graduates are required to have their colleges send an official transcript to lps-admissions@sas.upenn.edu before registering for courses.
