3/21/2022 COURSE UPDATE:

UNFORTUNATELY THE NETWORKS COURSE HAS BEEN CANCELLED FOR THE 2022 PROGRAM CYCLE

2022 COVID-19 UPDATE:

Currently, we hope to offer a full on-campus program in 2022, featuring all 6 courses.  However, that may be subject to change due to the ongoing pandemic.  Please note that for an on-campus program, students will be living in university dormitories and therefore will be required to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 before arriving to campus.  We are still working on details and protocols regarding the submission of documentation, medical and religious exemptions, etc.  However, we did want to inform you that full vaccination is required.

If you have questions or concerns regarding ESAP, please contact us via email ONLY at esap@seas.upenn.edu.  We ask that you DO NOT call our office or leave voicemail messages. We make every effort to respond to emails in a timely manner.

For applicants and institutions, please note that we are no longer able to accept transcripts (or any other documents) by mail or fax, as our office’s operations are being performed remotely. Please have your school send your official transcript via email, to esap@seas.upenn.edu. Transcripts will be uploaded to your account within 1-3 business days after receipt, if your online application has been submitted via College Net. 

We appreciate your cooperation.
