If you are a prospective Penn legacy, become matched with a Linking Legacies buddy!

If you are a high school junior or senior and a Penn legacy who is thinking about applying, then Linking Legacies is for you!

Though you may have grown up hearing stories of Penn from your parents or grandparents, Linking Legacies is a buddy program designed to help prospective legacy students like you get to know all about the Penn of today!

This student-led program will put you in contact with current legacy students via email. Our current students will answer your questions and will offer a personal account of their own Penn experiences.

Please complete the form below to sign up for the program with enough information to match you with a current student based on region, interests, or academic history. A Linking Legacies student volunteer will then contact you with more information.
