From the moment you arrive at Penn, the Wharton cohort system will provide you with a supportive community of students.
As an incoming student, you will be assigned to one of nine cohorts of approximately 60 students. Your cohort will be led by upper-level cohort directors, who will plan activities and help your cohort grow into a strong network of friendship and support.
In your first semester, you will take Wharton 1010 with your cohort have the opportunity to participate in a variety of fun cohort events, including the Amazing Cohort Race (a campus-wide scavenger hunt).
In addition to your cohort directors, you will be paired with a cohort mentor, an upper-level student who will help you adjust to life at Wharton and Penn.
